Religious Education
At St. James, Religious Education encompasses three elements – head, hands and heart. Through our head, we learn about our faith, its rituals, traditions, history and story using Catholic Education Melbourne’s Renewed Religious Education Framework. Through our hands, we outreach to those in our local and global community via our support of Mission, CARITAS and other social justice causes. Our hearts enable us to build our relationship with God and with others, demonstrating the values in our Gospels.
Learning and teaching in Religious Education focuses on developing our students in each of the three areas. Our Sacramental Program is Parish based and we celebrate Sacraments under the leadership of our Parish Priest, Fr Dispin John with St. John’s Mitcham.
It’s not the curriculum that we offer that sets us apart...
....it’s the manner in which it’s delivered. Our teachers actively and passionately explore the possibilities of making their teaching practice more innovative, engaging and fun at every turn. This is the single ingredient that drives the most growth in our students.
