Special Religious Education (SRE) is education in the beliefs and practices of an approved religious persuasion. Special Education in Ethics (SEE) is a program in ethical decision-making, action and reflection in a secular framework, based on a branch of philosophy.
Galston Public School currently has SRE and SEE classes on Wednesday mornings for all stages. Each of these programs is delivered by authorised providers.
