Special Religious Education (SRE) and Special Education in Ethics (SEE)

NSW schools offer special religious education and special education in ethics. Approved providers deliver these, where available.

Write to the school if you wish to withdraw your child from special religious education, sometimes known as scripture. Special education in ethics is an option for your primary-age child if you withdraw them from special religious education. For more information, visit Religion and ethics

P&C Committee

To the West Pymble Community

15 Oct 2019

The staff at WPPS have been thinking about how we can best support the Gillespie-Jones family after they lost their family home in a tragic house fire in the holidays. The family lost everything including their very much loved pet. The West Pymble community have been so generous over the break, donating items, clothing and money including a rental house to get them set up while they move forward from this tragedy. As a staff, we have decided to collect donations for the family to go towards gift cards. If you would like to contribute a monetary donation, please drop this into the front office by the end of Week 3. A gift card will be organised and presented to the family in Week 4.

Thank you in advance for your generosity and support.
