Religion and ethics

NSW public schools offer Special Religious Education (SRE) and Special Education in Ethics (SEE), delivered by approved providers wherever available.

At Old Guildford Public School, SRE is delivered on Wednesday from 12.50pm to 1.50pm.

On enrolment parents/carers will be given the SRE participation/non participation letter to complete and return or be able to complete it on the online enrolment application form. 

After the initial enrolment, notification of changes to a child's enrolment in SRE should be given to the school administration office in writing by completing the Special Religious Education.pdf or through the online form.

The following SRE classes are offered at Old Guildford Public School:

  • Catholic SRE is provided by Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney. More information about Catholic SRE, including the authorised curriculum scope and sequence, please visit the Catholic Archdiocese of Sydney website.
  • Islamic SRE is provided by Islamic Council of NSW. More information about Islamic SRE, including the authorised curriculum scope and sequence, please visit the Islamic Council of NSW website.

During the time that SRE classes are being held, students not attending will be located in a separate space and will participate in meaningful curriculum based activities.
