Religious education in St. John Bosco includes the study of Catholic Christianity (including the Mystery of God, In the Image of God, Revealed Truth of God, Son of God, Signs of God, Word of God, Hours of God, Reign of God) and other world religions (including beliefs, values and issues, practices and traditions).<\/p>\n

God\u2019s Loving Plan<\/strong>\u00a0provides guidance to\u00a0Primary school teachers on how children can be helped to develop healthy and respectful attitudes to their bodies and to relationships with families and friends.\u00a0 This important resource connects children\u2019s learning about who they are and how they relate to others, to their learning about God and their relationship in faith.\u00a0\u00a0 It helps children to understand how love can be at the heart of their lives and what the Church\u2019s vision is of\u00a0Marriage as the ultimate expression of love between man and woman.<\/p>\n

In using this resource, teachers are encouraged to work closely with parents and carers to ensure that young people are supported as they grow, particularly when coming to deal with the physical and emotional impact of puberty. Good communication between home and school is encouraged to ensure that the more intimate aspects of children\u2019s growth are dealt with sensitively and skilfully by parents and teachers working together.<\/p>\n

The detailed planning framework in\u00a0God\u2019s Loving Plan\u00a0<\/strong>connects learning in Religious Education (RERC) to aspects of Health & Wellbeing (H&W\/B) taught from Primary 1 to Primary 7.\u00a0 This learning is organised under four\u00a0THEMES<\/strong>, dealing with God as the source of all life who is delighted when we use our unique talents (including our bodies) for good, who calls us to be loving people and who guides us to make choices that are good and responsible.
