Chaplaincy in our School

Chaplaincy is an important service we offer to students and the wider community. Our Chaplain counsels and supports students in a variety of ways from providing breakfast on Thursday mornings, providing material support in the form of shoes and uniforms for needy students and supports student welfare both across the school and individually.

Parenting News (www.parentingideas.com.au)

When we value something we make sure we guard it, keep it safe, know where it is at all times, put in place precautions to ensure we don’t lose it. In terms of possessions most people would consider family as their most valued possession. It can then be assumed that, having such valuable possessions as children in our care, we would put in place similar, if not greater, care and concern.
