Innisfail State School's chaplaincy service has now been in operation for a number of years. Our chaplain is Chappy Jack. 

The chaplaincy service is in operation at school during school hours on Monday and Tuesdays. 

What does the Chaplain do?

The chaplain is a safe person for young people to connect with at school, providing a listening ear and a caring presence. They care for students struggling with confusing relationships, peer pressure and self-esteem issues, school behaviour, family separation, depression, bullying and anxiety issues. By learning to develop positive relationships, young people are empowered to face challenging issues.

The chaplain runs positive, fun activities for young people in the school and works towards fostering a supportive, caring school community. The chaplain is also available to support staff and families from the school community.

The chaplain works to foster a partnership between the school and the local churches, businesses and community organisations to provide a network of local support and assistance.

Chaplaincy in school is governed by the Department of Education Queensland Policy on Chaplaincy. See more detail about the Chaplaincy and student well being officer services
