Teacher Taster

NEW INITIATIVE: Philosophy for Children Teacher Taster
Experience what it feels like to be a participant in a Community of Inquiry. As teachers, we don't often get the chance to authentically express our beliefs (at least not in the classroom), so this is a chance to philosophise with your peers, enhance your skills in forming a community, and develop your critical thinking with each other.
Each of our taster sessions will be held in a public venue and will explore big ideas in a selection of artefacts, such as a work of art at the National Gallery Victoria.
These teacher tasters will be facilitated by experienced P4C and Community of Inquiry practitioners.
2026 DATES:
- August - Sunday 16th, 2pm - 3:30pm - Tickets ($10) available now.
Location: Tasters will be held at the NGV - Australia, Federation Square. Once registered, you will receive further information about the location at the venue.
These events are an opportunity to gain an understanding of what a P4C session looks like, ask a practitioner questions and explore the possibility of continuing and completing the VAPS Introduction to Community of Inquiry Course (offered twice in 2026 - go to Teacher Training 2026 page for more details).
