SRE and Your Child

This brochure presents some basic facts about SRE for parents, such as what SRE is, who the teachers are and what they teach. It is intended for distribution with enrolment forms, school information packs or newsletters. (See the June 2007 SRE Update for more ideas on how it can be used.)

SRE and Your Child

On the back of the brochure, there is space for the name and phone number of the local SRE Coordinator, plus the SRE classes available at the school.
In order to complete the details, download the file and open it in MS Word. You will see the form fields shaded in grey. The field that is shaded dark grey is the one that has focus (i.e. that is where your cursor is). As you type, the text will appear over the shading. The shading is not visible when the document is printed. To move between fields, either use <TAB> or place your cursor in the relevant field.
Once complete, save and print as many copies as you need. Note that the file has been designed to be printed double sided and then folded in a tri-fold format.
