St Patrick’s Primary School has a fantastic team of service providers who come to the school regularly. We believe that these services can be very beneficial to our students and their families, so we invite all parents to take advantage of them as needed:
Other Services
Jump Music
Lynne Cronin teaches guitar and piano lessons at St. Patrick’s through Jump Music. Lessons are available during or after school hours. Enquires can be made through jumpmusic1@iinet.net.au.
01
School Dental Service
The staff from School Dental Service visit yearly to offer dental health checks on Pre-Primary, Year 3, and Year 6 students who choose to participate in the programme.
02
School Health Nurse
School Health Nurses visit St Patrick’s and perform health checks for Kindergarten students. Parents are informed ahead of time, and feedback is provided once the assessment is completed.
03
Your Move Program
We are now a Your Move School!
Your Move is a Department of Transport program that encourages students and their families to get active by walking, scooting and riding to school. These behavioural changes help instil lifelong healthy and positive habits and improve concentration and academic performance for students, while also reducing traffic and improving safety around the school.
We earn Your Move points by posting stories and photos of our active transport adventures on the website; https://www.yourmove.org.au/st-patricks-primary-school/ these can translate into grants to fund active transport facilities and activities for the school and other rewards. If you’re interested in volunteering to be part of our school’s Your Move program, get in touch with our Your Move Champion, Amy Fulton.
Before riding your bike to school, make sure you give it a quick safety check. Learn how by watching this ABC Bike Check video and checking out these great resources on staying safe on your bike.
