NSW schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics. Approved providers deliver these, where available.
Write to the school if you wish to withdraw your child from special religious education, sometimes known as scripture. Special education in ethics is an option for your primary-age child if you withdraw them from special religious education. For more information, visit Religion and ethics.
At Elderslie High School, Special Religious Education or SRE is generally delivered on Tuesdays and Thursdays for one lesson per fortnight for participating students.
On enrolment parents/carers will be given the SRE participation letter to complete and return. After the initial enrolment, notification of changes to a child's enrolment in SRE should be given to the school office, in writing.
The following SRE classes are offered at Elderslie High School: Christian SRE.
Combined Christian SRE is provided by Generate Ministries. More information about Christian SRE, including the authorised curriculum scope and sequence, please visit the following website - https://whysre.com.au/images/files/About_Think_Faith.pdf
During the time that SRE classes are being held, students not attending will remain in their classrooms and will participate in meaningful activities including reading, private study or completing homework.
