By the end of Year Ten, students recognise the mystery of God as explored through the analogy of “a Triune relationship of love” as understood and taught in the Scriptures, Liturgy, and Tradition of the Catholic Church. They reflect upon right relationship with God and creation through prayer, Eucharist and compassionate service as lived by Jesus. Students understand that the basic meaning of the Incarnation of Jesus is that he is at once “divine and human”.
