11REL

Year 11 Religious Education

Although next year timetables are yet to be finalised, course selection is now finished. Any changes to student courses will now take place in January.

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Ms A. Francis.


The Religious Education course follows the New Zealand National Religious Education Syllabus as determined by the NZ Catholic Bishops’ Conference. It is a full academic course assessed through Achievement Standards. The topics studied are as follows: Understanding the Gospel Story, Reverence for Life and The Trinity. One-day retreats are completed at Year 11 with opportunities for students to celebrate Eucharist and Reconciliation throughout the year. 

In 2021 a discipleship class will be run in Year 11 where students are encouraged to grow and share their personal faith while also undertaking the academic 11REL course. Students will have an opportunity to opt into this class after their Year 10 retreat in Term 4 this year.
