Religion and ethics

NSW schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics. Approved providers deliver these, where available.

Write to the school if you wish to withdraw your child from special religious education, sometimes known as scripture. Special education in ethics is an option for your primary-age child if you withdraw them from special religious education. For more information, visit Religion and ethics.

At Gordon East Public School, SRE and SEE is delivered each Tuesday from 9:20-9:40am.

On enrolment, parents/carers will be asked which SRE or SEE group they wish for their child to attend. After the initial enrolment, notification of changes to a child's SRE/SEE group must be emailed to the school.
