At Rathfriland High School each pupil will be given the opportunity to develop personally, morally and spiritually.  We provide our pupils with positive learning experiences and use their existing knowledge to assist in the study of Religious Education and an appreciation of others.

While Rathfriland High School welcomes pupils of all faiths or none, we teach Christianity and follow the Religious Education Course as agreed in the RE syllabus of the Northern Ireland Curriculum.

RE Trip 

In October the Year 11 RS GCSE class went on a church visit to Banbridge Baptist Church.  The class was given a tour of the church and Pastor Kenny Wilson gave an in depth description of the churches beliefs.  Below are some photographs from this trip.
