Hindu Special Religious Instruction

Special Religious Instruction (SRI) refers to religious instruction program to state government school students by authorized providers.

SRI consists of weekly 30 minutes classes and the program material will typically vary according to year level.

SRI is not compulsory; it is an optional class, which requires parent's written consent for their child to attend.

SRI is also not taught in all schools. Check if there is a SRI program available at school.
