Those seeking an understanding of human existence and the world in which we live are invited to attend a course in Practical Philosophy. The course is centred on an enquiry into the underlying unity behind all the diversity and change in our daily lives. Students are asked neither to accept or reject anything in the course, but rather to test everything for themselves in the light of their own experience. No prior knowledge or training is necessary.

The Introduction to Philosophy course will be offered in Term 1 2009 at Erindale College, starting on Tuesday 10 February at 7:00pm or at Gorman House Art Centre on Thursday 12 February at 10:00am. If you are interested in attending either of these courses, please contact the School or Erindale College directly.
