Canterbury’s religion program makes an impact on students' daily lives. 学生:
- 参与服务机会
- 学习宗教领袖和圣经中的英雄
- Learn about the differences and similarities of work religions
- 支持个人成长,促进和平
而学校是无教派的, our founders felt it was important it be grounded in Christian principles. In doing so, the school focuses on teaching values and helping students to grow in spirit.
The basic principle of religion classes is to present students with the underlying issues, 主题, 宗教信仰:许多宗教共同的信仰和习俗. The Canterbury community is made up of many religions including Hindu, Muslim, Jewish and Christian. With this in mind, classes are respectful of diversity and do not teach doctrine. Religion classes also are seen as a way to address ethical situations and personal beliefs from an intellectual perspective.
