Chaplain’s Corner
To commemorate National Volunteer Week this week, the Senior School Devotional Assembly heard from Ms Gail Yap; Head of Volunteer from Uniting.
Uniting NSW.ACT is responsible for the social justice, community services and chaplaincy work of the Uniting Church in NSW and the ACT. They provide care and support for people through all ages and stages of life, with a focus on people experiencing disadvantage and vulnerability!
Ms Yap talked about making a real difference in volunteering and provided information on the different services provided by Uniting and how to register to be a volunteer.
Our 2020 School Captains played a major role in collaborating with Uniting via Ms Yap, engaging and encouraging our community to be volunteers – a vision taken up by our current School Captains and others already involved to make a difference by doing good deeds to enliven communities and confront injustice.
Being a volunteer is to selflessly offer time, skills and passion to help others, and the Chaplains will continue to encourage and journey alongside our students and staff in this act of service to society.
