ABOUT SU AUSTRALIA IN NSW

(FORMERLY GENERATE)

Welcome to NSW!

SU Australia in NSW (formerly ‘Generate’) has been active in the state for almost 20 years, predominantly through the provision of SRE (Scripture) and chaplaincy services. Working closely with local church communities, we employ close to 300 NSW staff and are supported by a large network of volunteers. Since 2021, Generate became a member of the SU Australia, and now offers the full range of SU Australia programs throughout the NSW & ACT regions including camps, missions, internships, training and more.

SU Australia is in warm fellowship with Scripture Union NSW, who run their own range of ministries.

OUR CORE PROGRAMS

SPECIAL RELIGIOUS EDUCATION (SRE)

Empowering young people through exploration of the Christian faith

Special Religious Education (SRE) (also known as Scripture) has been part of NSW schooling since 1849. The current NSW Education Act requires that time be allocated for religious education in all government schools and, in the case of Christian SRE, that this teaching be delivered by authorised persons representing the Christian faith. To find out more about SRE, click here.

CHAPLAINCY

Supporting wellbeing in NSW schools

School Chaplaincy supports the emotional wellbeing of students and the broader school community. Working as part of school wellbeing teams, school chaplains are qualified support workers who provide wellbeing and pastoral care services to the school community. To find out more about chaplaincy, click here or go to our expression of interest form.
