Religious Education
Awakenings comprises the Core Document and educational materials of the Religious Education Curriculum for the Catholic Diocese of Ballarat, reflecting the integrity of the Catechism of the Catholic Church (1992) and the General Directory for Catechesis (1997).
Awakenings is structured in response to the developmental and educational needs of students across the years of schooling, thus promoting fidelity to God revealed in the Catholic Tradition and fidelity to the students of our schools.
The resources of the Awakenings Religious Education Curriculum are provided to support and enliven learning and teaching in Religious Education throughout the Diocese of Ballarat. The challenges of contemporary Catholic schooling are seen as an opportunity to enter more deeply into the intellectual, ethical and spiritual riches of the Catholic tradition, and to seek ways to make those riches available in a respectful dialogue with the world of students and their families. In line with the self-understanding of the Church, they are welcoming to all who share their educational philosophy.
