At Wessex Gardens, our Religious Education (R.E.) curriculum is designed to inspire curiosity, respect, and understanding amongst our students as they explore diverse world religions and belief systems. We aim to foster a reflective and inclusive environment, encouraging children to ask questions and express their ideas, while building knowledge and appreciation of different cultural and spiritual perspectives.

Our R.E. lessons are rich with activities that bring learning to life. From investigating religious symbols and artefacts, to creating art inspired by sacred designs like mandalas, to exploring the role of music in worship, we help children connect with topics in creative and meaningful ways. We also take learning beyond the classroom, offering experiences that deepen understanding and build empathy, preparing students to engage thoughtfully in our multicultural society.

We warmly welcome parents and community members to volunteer and share their own religious or cultural experiences with us! Whether through storytelling, explaining traditions, or introducing special artefacts, we are warmly extending our hands to invite YOU to bring invaluable insights to our classrooms and enrich our children’s learning. If you’re interested in volunteering, please get in touch—we would love to hear from you!

Through careful planning, our R.E. curriculum promotes spiritual, moral, and cultural growth. Our dedicated team of teachers supports children of all levels to achieve their best, and we work collaboratively with families to ensure our approach respects and reflects the diverse community our Wessex Gardens family includes!

We invite you to learn more about our R.E. program and join us in our mission to educate respectful, thoughtful, and compassionate pupils.
