Citizenship aims to motivate and enable young people to become thoughtful, active citizens in the society in which they live. The curriculum provides opportunities to inspire a curiosity and fascination about the world that we live in. Our intent is for our students to gain a deeper knowledge of democracy, government and law, and develop skills to create sustained and reasoned arguments, present various viewpoints and plan practical citizenship actions to benefit society. Our responsibilities towards Catholic Social Teaching are mirrored within the Citizenship curriculum which calls for us all as Catholics to work for the common good, help build a just society, uphold the dignity of human life and work for justice and the dignity of all, especially those in the greatest need.
