Comet Bay College has 3 chaplains who work over the week:
Chris Steenhof (Monday to Friday), Eleanor Clayson (Mon, Tues, Wed) and Teresa Millard (Thurs & Fri).
Chaplains are trained and employed through YouthCARE. YouthCARE chaplains care for the social, emotional and mental wellbeing of students, families and staff in state school communities throughout Western Australia. This support helps students achieve their potential, both academically and in their social and family lives.
Chaplains offer programs and sessions for reasons such as mental health (for eg anxiety), anger management, emotional regulation and grief and loss. The chaplains also offer one on one pastoral counselling sessions.
CBC Chaplains are qualified in pastoral care, counselling and youth work. They respect all people, no matter who they are, where they’re from, or what their personal belief system is. If asked to do so, chaplains will discuss spiritual matters with a person, in a way that best serves that person.
CBC Chaplains are involved in a range of programs through the Positive Culture Team:
- Breakfast Club Tuesday and Thursday 7:45am to 8:20am
- Create and Chat Monday recess girls of all ages
- Create and Chat Wednesday recess year 7 girls
- Warrior classes for boys
