School Chaplain

At Mount Helena Primary School, our Chaplaincy Service provides valuable pastoral care to support student wellbeing. Our chaplain works across classrooms and offers daily playground support, fostering a caring and inclusive school environment.

Support may be offered in various ways — from whole-class activities to small group work and, when needed, individual support.

To access this service, please complete the Parent Request Form (attached) and return it to the front office.

Please note that signed parent/carer consent is required for any individual support.

Once a referral is received, our chaplain will contact the referring parent or carer directly to discuss next steps.

We are proud to offer this wellbeing support as part of our commitment to nurturing the whole child.
