Smile Squad Free Dental

Smile Squad is Coming to this School

Dear Blackburn Primary School families,

 

The Smile Squad team from healthAbility are coming to our school soon.

 

Smile Squad is the Victorian Government free school dental program.

 

This means all students can get a free dental check-up, preventive services, and treatment at school.

 

How to access free dental care

We need your consent before we can provide services. 

Consent is usually provided by a parent or guardian.

Paper copies of the consent form are available. Please contact the school office if you would like to request one.

 

The electronic consent form can be translated into more than 100 languages, and the paper form is available in 13 languages.

 

Do I need to attend my child’s appointment?

No, you do not need to attend your child’s appointment. You can attend if you would like to, and you can take your child to the community dental clinic if you prefer.

 

The healthAbility Smile Squad look forward to seeing you soon.
