Academic Curriculum

Year 10 students learn about Judaism

FROM RELIGIOUS EDUCATION TEACHER, KAREN JONES

Last Monday, 26 March, Year 10 Religious Education class were privileged to hear a talk about Judaism.

Mrs Green from the NSW Board of Jewish Deputies was invited to visit Waverley College and share with the class many aspects on Judaism such as culture, food, festivals, current demography and contributions to Australia. The students were clearly engaged and inspired to ask meaningful and insightful questions which added to the whole discussion.

It was all relevant to their current study “Ecumenism and Interfaith Dialogue”. Next week they will have a talk from another guest speaker on this topic from “Together for Humanity”.
