4-6 Curriculum

Grade 4

The Grade 4 Religious Education Program explores the experience of the Church handing on the Good News of Jesus in the written Gospel. Through the Gospel stories of those people who encountered Jesus, we explore the meaning of Jesus Christ for us today. In the Gospels we hear the invitation given by the Holy Spirit to be disciples and friends of Jesus. The tree stump is used as a symbol of Jesus to evoke many meanings throughout the program.

Grade 5

The Grade 5 Religious Education Program seeks to assist students in understanding more fully what the Church does as it gives witness to Jesus in the Spirit. It focuses on how the Church is gathering, a communion of people from all nations in and through the Spirit of God. In the Church, the Lord Jesus is visible, active and present in the power of the Holy Spirit. Jesus rekindled the hope and vision of God’s chosen people, and the Church continues the ancient promise of God to gather and assemble a community of believers.
