Description
Witness, Specialist, Moderator prioritises the importance of Catholic education as a framework for living, based on the ideal of loving God and loving your neighbour. It looks at where we have come from, where we are now and the hope we hold for the future of the faith in Australia and those who will carry it forward.
Authors Bernadette Mercieca and Ann Rennie have lived this book for decades. Every idea has been tested in the rough and tumble of the classroom and every chapter poses reflection questions for those who would like to engage deeper with the book.
