Computer Technology – I.C.L.T.

All classrooms have Computers, Printers & CD Roms to support and enhance all areas of the curriculum. All grades have access to a Computer Lab.

Religious Education Programme

The Religious Education Programme has been sequentially developed by the Catholic Schools Office and is regularly revised. It covers:

  • Scripture
  • Doctrine
  • Church Tradition
  • Liturgy

The Sacramental Programme is Parish based, with the school working closely, ensuring appropriate Sacramental Units are taught in conjunction with the Parish Programme.

  • Confirmation – Year 2
  • First Reconciliation & First Eucharist – Year 3

The Religious Education Programme and Faith Development is not taught in isolation but as a part of everyday life, where children are encouraged to reflect on the message of Jesus and put it into practice.

Wahroonga is a Diocesan parish. The Priest from Holy Name Church visits and supports the administration, staff and children in the area of Religious Education.
