Chaplain News  

I hope you have had a great break and are ready to go for another term.

I am happy to announce that this term my days here at the school have increased, I will be at the school on Tuesdays, Wednesdays & Thursdays. I look forward to being able to serve the school community more this term.

Pastoral Care

As a school chaplain, my role is to provide emotional, spiritual and social support to the students and the wider school community. One of the ways I provide support is with one-on-one pastoral care conversations. If you would like me to provide support for your child, please email me at katki121@eq.edu.au. 

Breakfast Club

Breakfast Club starts up next week and will continue to operate on Tuesdays & Thursdays. I want to thank Central Valley Church for financially supporting it and for all of my volunteers who help out.

Breakfast Club this term will be open for students to come and help serve food. This will enable the students to have a sense of belonging within the RVSSC community but will also enable our adult volunteers to interact more with the students and to create more of a connection within the RVSSC community with the greater Ripley Valley community.

Colour Run

My role as the School Chaplain is funded through generous donations from the community and through fundraising events.

One fundraising event is a colour run. This year we’re holding the School Fun Run’s Crazy Colour Day as a major fundraising event this year!  The event will be held on 28/05/21 We are really hoping to raise $10,000.

Currently, we have raised $772.94 of our $10,000, so there is a way to go and I hope you’ll keep supporting us! Remember, the money raised will be going towards the Chaplaincy Service.

Local Chaplaincy Committee

The Local Chaplaincy Committee (LCC) is the supporting and guiding body behind the Chaplaincy Service helping to shape it to meet the wellbeing of the school community. The LCC meets roughly once a term and oversees the chaplaincy service both here at RVSSC and the primary school. If you would like to attend and be a part of the committee, we have our next meeting on Thursday the 6th of May at 4 pm at the primary school.

Trivia Night

Springfield Christian Family, a local church in Springfield is running a Trivia Fundraising Night on Friday the 28th of May at Woodcrest College at 7pm. The purpose of this event is to raise funds for local school chaplains. The church has decided to support the chaplaincy service here at RVSSC. The cost of this event is $10 with a chance to give financially towards the school as well as having an auction. Registrations are still coming so be on the lookout for this as you will need to register online for this.
