Our Religious Education Curriculum
We teach RE through the Diocese of Portsmouth's God Matters Scheme and 10% of our school curriculum teaching time is devoted to this.
The Liturgical Year
As an integral part of our Catholic ethos, all pupils are made aware, throughout the school year, of the changes and celebrations relating to the Church's Liturgical Year. These events are highlighted in our prayer space in the corridor that links KS1 to KS2 and also in every classroom's personal worship area. The children are aware of the liturgical changes with the changing colours of our cloths and displays.
