NSW public schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics, delivered by approved providers wherever available.
During enrolment, you can choose a special religious education option for your child from the school’s available approved providers. You can withdraw your child from special religious education by selecting alternative meaningful activities, or special education in ethics if it’s available.
You can update your preference by writing to the school or through the online form available at participating schools.
Visit the department’s website for more information about religion and ethics.
At JPS we offer Special Religion Education (SRE) for our students which is a 30 minute 'scripture' lesson per week.
Learning during this time involves a teacher from the local Catholic church, explore the Bible and discover the Good News of Jesus Christ and what it means to be a Christian in our world today, students ask questions and investigate living by 'Gods Way'. Lessons are age-appropriate, fun and inclusive.
