Year 7 - Ways of Praying (Strand D)
Prayer is an essential means through which individuals and the Christian community deepen their relationship with God. In this unit students will explore a range of prayer forms (personal, communal and liturgical) and experience its different expressions, vocal prayer, meditation and contemplative prayer. Students will also become familiar with the pattern of the Church’s liturgical year and appreciate the significance of liturgy as public worship.
Year 8 - Striving for Goodness (Strand C)
Within the Christian worldview God is acknowledged as the highest good. Created in the image and likeness of God, women and men are inherently good. In this unit students will explore and affirm the good in their lives and the reality that the distortion of good can prevent us from realising the fullness of our humanity.
Year 9 - Biblical Writing (Strand A)
In this unit, students will explore the Bible as the unfolding story of our relationship with God by examining the Bible as a collection of sacred books which contain the truth of God’s revelation as written under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. They will become familiar with a range of literary forms in both the Old and New Testaments. Students will read passages in the contexts in which they were written, explaining their features and purpose to interpret the whole message of the Scriptures with a view to its heart and mystery.
Year 10 - The Church (Strand B)
This unit will allow students to explore the pilgrim nature of the Catholic Church as it seeks to proclaim the Good News and work towards the fullness of the Kingdom of God. Students will investigate the Scriptural underpinnings of the Church’s mission, the significant people, movements, and events that have shaped the Church throughout its history, and the way in which the Church lives out its mission in the world today. Students will also be given the opportunity to reflect upon their place in the continuing mission of the Church as they are called to proclaim the Good News.
