School Scripture - it's a good thing

​​

OPEN for Scripture and Non-Scripture Students - More Information below 

​

Instead of regular SRE classes, all children from Kindergarten to Year 6 who usually attend Christian SRE will join together for a special Christian SRE assembly. This will also include students in K–6 who do not have weekly SRE this year but whose parents/caregivers have already given consent for them to attend SRE.

​

For this assembly, the Christian SRE team has invited a professional performing group called Quiz Worx to present a puppet show. Quiz Worx shows are endorsed for use in Christian SRE. The show shares the story of Christmas from the Bible about Jesus. The presentation will include puppets, humour, Bible stories, and a song.

​

​

• If your child is already consented into Christian SRE: they will automatically attend this assembly.

• If your child is not currently consented into Christian SRE but you would like them to attend this special assembly, please inform the school in writing. A simple note is all that is required, for example: Please allow my Child (child's name) to attend the Christmas SRE puppet Show. 

• If your child is not consented into Christian SRE and you do not wish for them to attend, you do not need to take any action.
