Student Welfare

Specialist Services

School Nurse

The School Nurse visits the school annually to check all Prep students and any students referred from other year levels.

Speech Pathologist & Guidance Officer

We have a speech pathologist and a guidance officer (psychologist), who visit the school on a regular basis to assess students and work with them.

Teachers and parents (in consultation with the school) can refer students to them but sometimes there is a waiting list and they cannot be seen immediately. There are also a number of other community agencies in our area that are available to assist students and parents.

The school does not recommend or encourage students to ride bicycles to school. However, if they do, they must not ride in the school grounds. The school accepts no responsibility for bicycles, either at school or on their journey to and from school.

The wearing of approved bicycle helmets at all times whilst cycling is required by law.

Wheelers Hill Primary School is a ‘Sunsmart' School. Students are encouraged to supply and apply their own sunscreen. They must also wear hats, wide-brimmed or legionnaire, for outside activities at all times in Terms 1 & 4.
