A feature of the public education system in NSW is the opportunity to provide time in class for education in ethics, faith and morality from a religious or non-religious perspective at the choice of parents/carers.

The school website (link shown below) provides information on these options to support parent/carer choice.

Religion and ethics - Charlestown South Public School (nsw.gov.au)

A parent/carer may at any time notify the school in writing that they wish to change their decision. Students will continue the same arrangement as the previous year, unless a parent/carer has requested a change in writing.

If your preferred Special Religious Education or Special Education in Ethics option is not available, please contact the approved provider. Students not attending Special Religious Education or Special Eeducation in Ethics are given supervised alternative meaningful activities.

For more information about Special Religious Education (SRE) and Special Education in Ethics (SEE), including the list of approved providers, please visit: https://education.nsw.gov.au/religion-and-ethics
