Religious Education

Religious Education in classrooms

Religion, Culture and Society

During the last part of Term 3 classes will be looking at Religion, Culture and Society. The Religious Education Curriculum states the following points as progressions of learning from Kinder to Grade 6 in this area:

• All people belong to a community.
• For Christians, Jesus is the centre of their faith.
• Christianity is essentially linked to Judaism through history and tradition...
• The Catholic Church shares the search for knowledge and understanding about God with other faiths.

 Inquiry questions are used in classrooms to help with discussion and to provide a framework for developing students’ knowledge, understandings and skills to inform and enlighten the learning process.

Here are a sample of wonder questions that are being investigated from a range of different grades throughout the school.

• How did Jesus live and learn when he was growing up?
• How can I be life-giving in my choices and actions?
• How does the Eucharist challenge and nourish us for Christian living?
• How can I make good choices and do loving actions?
• How is Jesus the One who saves and brings hope to the world?
• How can the light of Jesus shine through me?
