Religious Education

Religious Education & Religious Life of the School

Across the Canberra/Goulburn Archdiocese we use the Brisbane Diocese Curriculum to teach Religious Education.  It comes from an understanding that we need to teach people religious concepts but also how to be religious people. The fullness of our Religious Education comes where these two dimensions intersect. For example it is when children live out their service to others, like from our participation in Winter Woolies Day, with a deeper understanding of the Catholic Social Teachings that compel us to do these acts of service, that we see engagement in both dimensions. Throughout the liturgical year of the Catholic Church we seek to teach children about the events of the Church calendar as well as experience them.

Year 6 Retreat & Letters of Affirmation

Students in Year 6 will be taking part in a very special Retreat day on Thursday 1^st September. An element of the day is reading and responding to letters of affirmation from a parent or Sponsor. These letters need to be sent in to Ms Younger in an envelope addressed to the student for whom they are intended. If we could have those letters in the next week it will help with smooth preparation of our Retreat Day.
