Religious Education (RE)

The children are taught this subject as a key stage, with differentiated tasks for the different year groups. The curriculum can be found under the Curriculum tab on this website. 

Teachers plan and lead prayer and liturgy with the children on a weekly basis. The children have the opportunity to plan and lead a liturgy once a term with the support of staff.

Where possible, we try and visit the church on a regular basis to share in the mass or just to have some time to sit, pray and reflect.
