And there will be more brightened faces at the school now it has secured funding to keep Ms Eddison on into 2016, after missing out on a round of funding at the end of last year.
Education Minister Peter Collier last month announced $2.7 million would be provided to 179 public schools that missed out on the Australian Government's reduced chaplaincy funding in 2015.

"I have had the privilege of running the program throughout the year and it really seems to boost their confidence. Their demeanour changes."
Principal Frank Scarfone said it was important to have a chaplain on site at least two days a week.
"We have over 500 students and staff here and the needs of students and staff is very diverse," he said.
"To make a worthwhile contribution the school needs a chaplain for a minimum of two days… to be available when problems arise or to have continuity in discussions and implementation of programs."
He said having a chaplain full- time had the potential to expand some of the school's programs.
YouthCARE chief executive Stanley Jeyaraj welcomed the news of additional funding to provide chaplains at more schools.
"This support helps students achieve their potential, both academically and in their social and family lives," he said.
