Professional learning

Our Q&A sessions provide professional learning opportunities for teachers in subscribing schools. Join us for a session via Zoom to explore ways to bring religious education and faith formation to life in your school.

Australian Catholics Professional Learning Sessions are for religious education practitioners to deepen their knowledge about key topics related to faith education and formation. Participants will have the opportunity to listen to our guest speakers, as well as pose questions and share their own experiences in a collaborative environment.

Next Professional Learning session: Join the great teaching ideas swap-meet!

 

Discover, exchange, and enhance your teaching materials at our Religious Education resources swap-meet. Join us and bring along some of your favourite classroom ideas to swap with your colleagues. Australian Catholics staff will also bring along some of ours. Whether you're looking to update your curriculum, find fresh ideas, or connect with like-minded professionals, this swap-meet offers something for everyone. Don’t miss this chance to innovate your teaching toolkit and foster a community of learning and growth.

Date: 22 October, 4.30 - 5.30 pm AEDT (3.30 - 4.30 pm AEST)

Speakers:
Laura Kings is the assistant editor - education and youth at Australian Catholics. She will be demonstrating a number of teaching ideas, including using labyrinths inside and outside the classroom and rotations for all ages.
Michael McVeigh is the director of publishing at Jesuit Communications and the former editor of Australian Catholics. He will be showing you how to use Netflix in a playful way in the classroom and will share his secret formula for creating engaging and contemporary articles about Catholic concepts.
