The Humanist Society of Victoria (click here) is campaigning to be allowed to deliver ethics lessons to the children of parents who don’t want their children to attend special religious instruction in Victorian Government schools.
Some typical ethics lessons are given below, but for access to our full 'turning-page' manual please contact Harry for password at 61(3) 9870 8998 and then click on Manual in left menu.
