Religious Education
Religious Education is seen as an essential aspect of any Catholic school, where the work of the Church is carried out through education in faith and knowledge. As a result, Religious Education is a compulsory subject for students in Years 7 to 12. The course focuses on the study of Scripture, Sacraments, Church Teachings, Morality, Prayer and Liturgy, and Church History.
As well as the focus on academic subjects, the staff also facilitate positive experiences of prayer, and an involvement in activities such as retreats and liturgies, to nurture the development of faith in each student.
The Year 7 course begins with a unit on Belonging, which assists our new students to assimilate into the life of the College, and the course culminates by offering a range of VCE units. They provide a sound understanding of scripture, church teaching and the role of the Church in society, along with the compulsory Religious Education Seminar Program at Year 12.
