St Joseph’s Chaplaincy Team

Key Stage 2 children have the opportunity to serve our school as part of the chaplaincy team. Anyone can apply, members will be given a special chaplaincy badge at assembly.

The Chaplaincy team play a vital role in the spiritual life of the school and are supported by the Headteacher and R.E. Subject leader.

   The roles of our Chaplaincy team include the following:

  • To help the school to be a community of faith.
  • To encourage the pupils to live their faith in daily living.
  • To develop good relationships within and beyond the school community.
  • To support Liturgy, prayer and the spiritual life of the school.
  • To involve pupils in fundraising for charities.
  • To continue to develop strong links with the Parish and Community.
  • To support the school in its Mission Statement.

   The following are our five top tips to help us to be a successful and effective Chaplaincy Team:

  • Listen to each other’s ideas.
  • Communicate with all team members, school and Parish.
  • Encourage everyone when making decisions, to share their ideas and to try their best.
  • Include everyone when making decisions.
