Asthma Management
- 1 in 9 people in Australia have asthma. That is around 2.7 million people (11% of the population.
- It is very important that we have up to date Asthma Management Plans for all of the students who have asthma at our school.
- If your children have asthma and have not returned their Asthma Action Plan, please complete the form available here (in colour) and return it to the school office as soon as possible next term.
People with asthma can have a range of symptoms:
- Breathlessness
- Wheezing
- Tight chest
- Persistent cough
- Symptoms often occur at night, early in the morning or during/after activity
A person's asthma symptoms can vary over time - sometimes they will have no symptoms, especially when asthma is well-controlled. Symptoms often vary from person to person.
