A short film was released on 18 November to promote the value of Religion, Values and Ethics in the Curriculum for Wales. Aimed at young people, schools, parents / guardians, and others with an interest in Religion, Values and Ethics, the film shows how Religion, Values and Ethics really is a part of everyday life in Wales.
Awen, a young girl and star of the film, takes viewers through some of her big questions which are relevant to Religion, Values and Ethics. In her words: “Exploring big questions like these helps us to think critically about our world and the people in it. At the same time, we can develop our own beliefs and values, and be prepared for life and work in this fast-changing and diverse world.”
The film has been created for the Wales Association of SACREs (WASACRE) by Fresh Gecko Productions. Libby Jones and Tania ap Siôn (Co-Directors of the St Giles’ Centre in Wrexham) were both closely involved in the development and scripting of the film, working with teacher and advisor colleagues.
The film is available on YouTube and the WASACRE On Demand Conference resources page.
