WHY CHAPLAINCY?
LOCAL CHURCH | LOCAL CHAPLAIN | LOCAL COMMUNITY
School chaplaincy benefits students, school staff, families and other members of the community. Chaplains support these people through a range of issues, which may include social difficulties such as friendships, anger management and bullying, as well as with issues such as anxiety, grief, depression and illness.
School chaplains are actively involved in the life of their school community, participating in school events and running programs, being a constant presence in the school for people to approach, and working with school staff to care for the students and other members of the community.
Thank you for supporting these schools and the chaplains who have dedicated themselves to loving and caring for people in our communities.
