Sunday 1st August 2010 – Sunday 8th August 2010
NSW Public Schools – Leading the Way
Theme: Learning for Sustainability
Education week is a time for all to celebrate the valued place of our NSW public schools. As part of this week of celebration, the NSW Department of Education and Training, along with the Director-General’s Consultative Committee on Special Religious Education have provided an Inter-Denominational Christian order of service for use by churches and/or schools*. This could be used in your regular worship service or you could combine with neighboring churches for this special occasion. This is also a great opportunity to offer to host a service for your local school/s. Below are links to two orders of service (one designed for younger children) and suggestions for the use of these services.
We encourage you to take the time to acknowledge and pray for the education of our young people and the dedicated staff who make this public education possible.
*Please see the ’suggestions for using the order of service’ for more information on the use of a worship service in a public school.
