School Nursing Program 2024

The Primary School Nursing Program is a free service offered by the Department of Education and Training. It is available to all Prep children attending primary schools in Victoria. The aim of the program is to promote child health and wellbeing and to assist in the early identification of children with potential health related difficulties.

We would like to inform you that tomorrow, Friday 23rd February, an envelope will be sent home with your child. This envelope contains information about an online questionnaire that aims to gather information about your child's health and development. The questionnaire is open to all children who are enrolled in their first year of school. 

If you wish for your child to participate in the Primary School Nursing Program, please select the "YES" consent box within the online questionnaire. However, if you do not want your child to participate, please select the "NO" consent box within the online questionnaire.

The deadline for completing the online questionnaire is Thursday, March 7th, 2024. The school nurse will visit the school on Monday, March 25th.
