CURRICULUM
Religious Education Curriculum:
Based on the South Australian Religious Education Framework, Journey in Faith, is the Religious Education Curriculum for
students in Years 7 – 9. Drawing on the sources of our faith; creation, scripture, tradition and human experience, Journey in
Faith provides a way of seeing the world, acting in it and of responding to it, all drawn from the simple reality of our faith: God
loves us and calls us to life in full abundance. Journey in Faith is constructed around five key learning areas: God, Us and Faith,
Sacred Text, Prayer and Sacramentality, Moral Life, and Church for the World. In addition, students undertake units from the
Made in the Image of God (MITIOG) human sexuality curriculum.
The Australian Curriculum - Version 9.0:
The Australian Curriculum is a national curriculum framework that sets out the core knowledge, understanding, skills, and
capabilities that all Australian students should develop from Kindergarten to Year 12. It was first introduced in 2010 and is
regularly reviewed and updated to ensure it remains relevant and responsive to the changing needs of students and society.
The curriculum is organized around three key dimensions: learning areas, general capabilities, and cross-curriculum priorities.
