A number of external services are available to parents.
Dental Therapy
A dental therapist and dentist visit Ravensthorpe each year. Children are issued with an appointment card, showing when they are due for check-up and/or treatment. Children can only be properly checked and treated at the Dental Clinic in Ravensthorpe and have to be driven there by a parent. Parents are responsible for arranging an alternative appointment with the Dental Clinic if the one issued is not suitable.
School Nursing Service
A community nursing service is provided to our school by the Health Department of WA on a periodic basis. Appointments for children (vision and hearing tests, etc.) can be made by contacting the Principal.
School Psychological Service
The Goldfields Region Education Office provides a school psychological service for children experiencing low academic achievement, social and emotional problems and behavioural or attitudinal concerns. The school’s contact is in Esperance and the school is allocated one day each term.
The school psychologist can also refer parents of children experiencing difficulties to other health and caring community agencies.
