Religious Education

St Thomas More is a Catholic school and therefore Religious Education lessons are part of our curriculum. We also value and appreciate other cultures and religious beliefs. As a Catholic school we have a strong emphasis on the importance of positive relationships.

During Religious Education lessons students are supported to understand scripture with a focus on values such as love, kindness, compassion and forgiveness to name a few. Children are encouraged to think about how they can demonstrate these values in their own lives.

Students are also immersed in experiences such as;
  • Class Prayer Services
  • Class Liturgies and Masses
  • Whole School Masses
  • Social Outreach Initiatives


Families are most welcome to join their children during these celebrations throughout the year.

St Thomas More School uses the Religious Education Curriculum (Crossways) developed by the Archdiocese of Adelaide as the basis for its offerings in Religious Education. Hand in hand with this curriculum is "Made in the Image of God", the official programme for teaching Human Sexuality.
