St Mary's Chaplaincy Team
At St Mary’s VC Academy, pupils have the opportunity to serve the school as part of the Chaplaincy Team. The Chaplaincy Team play a vital role in the spiritual life of our school and are supported by Mrs Goodwin (Chaplaincy Coordinator), Father David and Mrs Sutherland.
The Chaplaincy Team meet regularly to plan the liturgical year. They perform any duties including:
- Encouraging the children to live out their faith in their daily living
- Develop positive relationships with and beyond the school community
- To support liturgy, prayer and the spiritual life of the school
- Fundraising for charities
- Developing stronger links with the parish
Our current team have been busy this year leading school liturgies, developing new new prayer spaces and they have also introduced a popular Chaplaincy Book Club at lunch time on Tuesdays.
