School health programs
We are still running school health programs during the coronavirus pandemic, but a limited variety! Please see below, under ‘Coronavirus update’ for more information.
At Ballarat Community Health we recognise the importance of working in partnership with schools to promote the health and wellbeing of children and young people. A range of programs and support are available for schools that are tailored to meet the specific needs of your school, and designed to address your students’ identified educational needs.
Each presenter has a Working with Children Check and is highly experienced, with demonstrated expertise in their field and in the delivery of programs and services to students, the educational sector and the broader community. In partnership with your school, we will work to ensure that programs are delivered in a professional, creative and age-appropriate manner that will meet desired learning outcomes.
