School Nurse
Louise Thompson is the Community Health Nurse who visits our school.
Community Health Nurses work in schools to promote healthy development and wellbeing so students may reach their full potential. A major part of the work of a Community Health Nurse within a school is to focus on early intervention and the School Entry Health Assessment Program.
Community Health Nurses serve as a health contact point for children and their families providing information, assessments, health counselling and referral.
The services provided are free and confidential.
If you have any concerns about your child's health or development, please contact Student Services Associate Principal, Natalie Astle.
