50 Years of CaRE
2024 is the 50th anniversary of AARE. Since 2014, we have been promoting and supporting the work of chaplains and religious educators in our schools – helping schools to fulfil their commitment to provide an wholistic education that caters to the wellbeing needs of students. These include spiritual wellbeing needs.
Our sister organisation in North America (Religious Education Association) is holding their Conference online again this year. The deadline for Proposals has been extended to the 28th February.
