Religion and ethics

NSW schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics. Approved providers deliver these, where available.

Parents and Carers in Public Schools have the right to have their child receive instruction in their preferred religious persuasion, where authorised teachers of that  persuasion are available.

A Special Religious Education (SRE) program is available at our school and is run by authorised volunteers of approved religious providers.  For details about the specific SRE programs, please see below.  Alternatively, parents may choose for their child not to attend SRE classes.

 

At our school the SRE program is delivered on Fridays from 2:30pm - 3pm.

 

During the time that SRE classes are being held, there will be no academic instruction delivered or formal school activities.  Children will therefore not be missing any class work by attending SRE classes.  Students attending Non-SRE classes will participate in meaningful activities such as reading, private study or completing homework.

 

We offer the following SRE classes

Greek Scripture

Anglican (Protestant) Scripture
