Special Religious Education at Armidale Secondary College
At Armidale Secondary College, Christian SRE is currently offered by Armidale Youth Futures, a combined Armidale churches arrangement of approved SRE providers. Parents and carers have the choice of enrolling their children in SRE by completing the SRE Participation Letter. If your preferred SRE option is not available, please contact the relevant approved provider for NSW public schools.
Students not attending SRE are given supervised alternative meaningful activities such as reading, revision or completing homework.
Parents and carers are required to nominate their SRE preferences using the SRE Participation Letter at the time of student enrolment (please choose only one option and return the tear-off slip to the School Office). They may notify the school in writing at any time if they wish to change their decision. Students will continue the same arrangement as the previous year, unless a parent/carer has requested a change in writing.
