Curriculum
First trimester topics include a study of the Trinity, our heritage as Children of the Sacred Heart, and an introduction to/review of the sacraments. We learn about and celebrate the Feast of Mater Admirabilis, and the lives of the saints.
Special feast days and liturgical seasons celebrated during the second trimester include the Feast of St. Rose Philippine Duchesne, rscj, the season of Advent, the Nativity of the Lord, and the Epiphany.
During the second and third trimesters, all students learn about Lent and Easter. We learn a new Marian prayer each year and honor the Blessed Mother with a beautiful May Crowning ceremony.
In addition to the above, throughout the year:
The first primary learns different ways to pray and explores stories from the Bible.
The second primary focuses on the Sacraments of Reconciliation and the Eucharist. A study of the mass is integral to their time in second primary religion. They learn The Act of Contrition.
The third primary reviews the sacraments. They study the Church, and the Bible, learningthe Apostle's Creed. They make their own rosary and lead the lower school in prayer during our Living Rosary. Each religion class in third primary illustrates the Apostles Creed. See their beautiful creations below.
