Summary/Abstract: The achievement of religious education at the preschool level is primarily responsible of the kindergarten, but the family also has an important role in the study by preschoolers of the elements of religious education. Kindergarten and family have a decisive role in achieving religious education at the pre-school level, but the community is also responsible for the moral-religious formation of preschoolers. Together with parents and teachers, community representatives must shape the souls of children by conveying their faith in God. The moral-religious development of children is responsible for several institutions within the community, such as the church, town hall, police, etc., the church being the institution with a major role in this sense. The kindergarten interacts with the family, but also with representatives of important institutions in the community, such as the school principal, the priest, the family doctor, the mayor, the police officer. All these relationships established with these partners lead to the moral and religious development of the child. The community plays an important role in children's education, as it helps to transmit knowledge and attitudes that can clearly guide the life of every member of the community. In the implementation of religious education in kindergarten it is important to have collaboration between teachers and community representatives. In order to effectively carry out educational activities of a religious nature, it is important that the educator also invites community representatives to participate in such activities, so that together they can work on the moral-religious development of children. How much community representatives consider studying religious content at the preschool level to be very important is the question that led to a research that used a questionnaire as the main tool. The research identified the views of community representatives on the need to study religious education at the pre-primary level, the types of content that should be studied and the benefits of studying such religious content for children.
