Introduction

Christian Religious Studies at the Primary 2 level introduces pupils to basic Christian teachings and values through simple Bible stories, teachings, songs, prayers, and practical examples. The subject helps pupils learn about God, Jesus Christ, creation, prayer, love, obedience, honesty, kindness, forgiveness, sharing, and peaceful living.
