Religious Education / Sacramental Programmes


As the primary educators of their children, parents have special responsibilities regarding Catholic schools. Chief among them is to help ensure that the school’s life and practices are consistent with a distinctively Catholic environment.’

(Mandate Letter, Catholic Education Commission of Western Australia, para. 57)


Religious Education at St Jerome’s Primary School follows the Perth Archdiocese Religious Education Units of Work. This program is to promote understanding of Christian beliefs and practices. Religious education is taught in a context with the same systematic demands and rigour as any other learning area.
