St Anne's Catholic Primary School

RE

It is our mission to announce the joy of the Gospel by making Christ known today.

INTENT/What we aim to do through our RE Curriculum

As a Catholic School, Religious Education lies at the heart of our curriculum.

Religious education in Catholic schools aims to promote:

knowledge and understanding of the Catholic faith and life in Christ;
knowledge and understanding of the response of faith to questions about human life, its origin and purpose;
the skills required to engage in examination of and reflection upon religious belief and practice, including awareness of and respect for the beliefs and practices of other faith groups and religious communities.

IMPLEMENTATION/How we teach RE

Our RE Curriculum is defined by the Archdiocese of Birmingham and is entitled 'Learning and Growing as People of God'.

Adaptations are made to the curriculum so that it is accessible to all and so that no child is disadvantaged by Special Educational Needs or Disaibility.

Year 5 Exploring the Sacrament of the sick

On Thursday, Father Joe will came in to talk to us about the way the parish cares for the people who are sick and explained how the sacrament of the Sick is administer.

We explored the gestures of laying on of hands and anointing with the Oil of the Sick and why these gestures might be performed.

He also explained to us the meaning of the words that are said to the sick person as they are being anointed with the oil on their forehead and hands: “Through this holy anointing may the Lord in his love and mercy strengthen you by the grace of the Holy Spirit. May the Lord who frees you from sin, save you and raise you up.”

Afterwards, Mrs Bernto came in to share with us the change and spiritual healing she felt when she received the Sacrament of the sick.
