NSW public schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics, delivered by approved providers wherever available.
During enrolment, you can choose a special religious education option for your child from the school’s available approved providers. You can withdraw your child from special religious education by selecting alternative meaningful activities, or special education in ethics if it’s available.
You can update your preference by writing to the school or through the online form available at participating schools.
Visit the department’s website for more information about religion and ethics.
At Millthorpe Public School, SRE and SEE is delivered on Thursday. Upon enrolment you will nominate a preference. A notification of change to a child's enrolment in SRE/SEE should be given to the front office staff, in writing.
The following SRE/SEE classes are offered at Millthorpe Public School:
Combined Christian SRE is provided by the Anglican Diocese of Bathurst, Uniting Church in Australia and Baptist Union of NSW. More information about combined Christian SRE, including the authorised curriculum scope and sequence, can be found on the provider websites.
SEE is provided by Primary Ethics. For more information about SEE, including the authorised curriculum scope and sequence, please visit the Primary Ethics website.
During the time that SRE/SEE classes are being held, students not attending will be located in a separate space and will participate in meaningful activities (activities could include reading, private study or completing homework).
