20th Nov 2025

HCB celebrated World Philosophy Day on Thursday with the P1-7 classes producing superb presentations on the life of PLATO.

Congratulations to the winning classes 1Q R2 & 3A R11 for collecting the inaugural Philosophy Bowl for their impressive performance on Plato and his philosophy on happiness.

Both classes will now get to enjoy a pizza party on the day of their choice leading up to Christmas.

Enjoy! https://www.holycrossboys.com/latest-news/news/today-is-world-philosophy-day-thursday-20th-november-2025/
