School Nursing Program

Michelle Baker, your Visiting Primary School Nurse from the Department of Education will be attending the school soon to conduct the Foundation health assessments. 

The purpose of the visit is to provide all Victorian children with the opportunity to have a health assessment to link children, families and the school to relevant community services, and provide information and advice that promotes health and wellbeing. 

If you have any concerns you would like to discuss with the Primary School Nurse and your child is in Foundation it would be great if you could complete the ONLINE ‘School Entrant Health Questionnaire’ (details distributed to the Foundation classes). 

If your concerns relate to a child in Years 1-6 a ‘School Nurse Referral Form’ will need to be completed.  Please speak to your class teacher who can assist you with this.   The school nurse can then contact you regarding your concerns.
