Intent

 

At St. Richard’s we are committed to the Catholic Faith, recognising and valuing every individual as special and unique in the image and likeness of God. R.E. here respects and promotes each child’s innate capacity for awe, reverence, spirituality and wonder. Our R.E. curriculum fundamentally teaches our children about God’s love; they learn about their Christian responsibilities, are provided with experiences of church, Catholic and Christian traditions, as well as being taught to be respectful and understanding of people and traditions from other faith backgrounds. Through R.E. our children learn about their unique place within the home, school and parish community.
