Our SRE Curriculum
We currently teach from the WBCEA Discovery Curriculum. The Curriculum has been approved by the Baptist Association of NSW & ACT for use in teaching SRE and lessons occur as timetabled by the school.
The Curriculum is modelled on the new DEC NESSA format and grants SRE teachers to teach meaningful, relevant, and appropriate programs in their schools. Our curriculum aims to give students the opportunity to gain an understanding of the basics of the Christian faith and discover how people apply faith to everyday life. We encourage students to ask questions about the ways faith impacts peoples’ beliefs, values, and identity.
We believe the Bible and the Christian faith are healthy influences on our western culture, influencing our legal system, literature, art, music, language, history, and traditions. A basic understanding of the Christian faith allows students to explore how modern Australia has been, in part, shaped by our Christian cultural heritage.
The Scope and Sequence document gives a outline of the content taught in SRE lessons week to week.
