Welcome!
Chaplains are an integral part of the support services as we have a passion to guide youth as they develop spiritually & emotionally. We seek to provide pastoral care & support for students, staff & families by providing a supportive & caring environment. Though chaplains operate under Christian principles & values, we are here to serve all students respectfully & with sensitivity to individual’s personal religious beliefs. We endeavour to establish programs that will challenge students to explore issues of life & faith & provide opportunities for them to grow both emotionally & spiritually. Such programs that are currently on offer are listed below.
WEEKLY CHAPLAINCY PROGRAMS
· “Pulse” is an opportunity for students to come together & learn more about the Bible. It’s on Thursday lunch in our office under the senior library.
· “Brekkie Club” is a free breakfast put on by the Chaplains fridays mornings before school down at the senior cafeteria underneath the library. Join us for pancakes and poppers or challenge us to a game of handball or cards.
· Other Activities: SU holiday camps, School Camps, Youth Alive concerts, Motivational Media Day, Reflection Day, Operation Christmas Child etc.
