More than 400 people attended the 6th SRE Celebration Event in person at NSW Parliament on Monday evening, with a further 400 watching the webcast online, in what was the biggest celebration of Special Religious Education in NSW state\u2019s history. Several Hillsong Church staff and volunteers were recognised for the critical role they played in caring for their communities in going above and beyond during the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/strong><\/p>\n

After a break during COVID, the biennial multifaith Celebration of SRE was back in person on Monday 28th<\/sup> November 2022. Special Religious Education is a valuable part of the NSW Government schooling system, and an important way parents can choose to have their children educated in the faith of their family. At this event, there were presentations of awards for both outstanding service to SRE and student wellbeing and identity, and also for outstanding service to the community during COVID.<\/p>\n

The event was emceed by NSW Jewish Board of Deputies CEO Darren Bark and attended by Education Minister Sarah Mitchell, Shadow Education Minister and Deputy Opposition Leader Prue Car, Multicultural Minister Mark Coure and Shadow Multicultural Minister Steve Kamper.<\/p>\n

This time, the celebration also recognised the critical role people of faith played beyond SRE in caring for their communities during the COVID-19 pandemic, with dozens of community leaders presented with COVID Community Service Awards.<\/p>\n

\u201cThese amazing community leaders work across the state to provide religious education for our students,\u201d Mitchell said. \u201cI want to thank our faith leaders for their partnership and insights, and acknowledge all of our special religious education volunteer teachers for the work they do.\u201d<\/p>\n
