Shouldn't education be based on time-tested methods rather than social and political fads?

Don't our children deserve to learn truth, goodness and beauty over competing relativistic claims?

When will schools develop flourishing human beings instead of mass produced employees?

There IS an alternative to the education crisis we face:

CLASSICAL EDUCATION.

In this information session, we will learn about:

* The philosophy behind this pedagogy

* How it works in the classroom

* The growing educational movement being rediscovered in this country!

 

This is a recording of a past event took place on Thursday 9 May 2024, 7PM - 8:30PM at the Monash Religious Centre. Kindly hosted by Monash Orthodox Chaplains.
