Great news this morning for the well-being of young Australians. The Prime Minister has announced the extension to Federal Government funding for School Chaplaincy to the end of 2011. I trust that the school chaplaincy program will be further extended and that funding will be increased to minister more fully to our young people. In Tasmania some 90 chaplains are walking with students, families and staff.
