Has Religious Instruction?

Yes

Notes: Until October 2025, the school website had been telling parents that they needed to opt their children out (unlawful since August 2020). The school promotes the lessons as "lots of fun", does not tell parents that the classes are not part of the curriculum, that the school is closed during that time, what alternative is offered to students not opting in or that parents need to provide written permission to opt their children into the lesson.

RI Class Time During normal class hours
RI Teaching time: During normal school hours after morning tea.
