Wellbeing and Inclusion Update

Dear Parents & Carers
I’m just wanting to let you know about the possibility of getting a clinician from Melton Psychology Clinic to attend onsite to support students as required.
Unlike previous services we have had here, sessions unfortunately are not fully funded under Medicare and will incur out of pocket expenses. As noted in the flyer, NDIS funding can be used.
Unfortunately wait times for access to public psychology services are months long and this can be quite detrimental to one’s mental health and wellbeing. Sessions are held onsite here at school which equates to less time travelling to external clinics and less time out of school.
I am after expressions of interest to see if this is a service that would be utilised within our community. If anyone may be interested in accessing this service please let me know via email; georgina.thorneycroft@education.vic.gov.au
