Let’s get involved in National Reconciliation Week
National Reconciliation Week (NRW) is a time for all Australians to learn about our shared histories, cultures and achievements. NRW, which is held from 27 May to 3 June, provides an opportunity for all of us to explore how we can contribute to achieving reconciliation in Australia. This year’s theme is ‘More than a word. Reconciliation takes action’, which urges the reconciliation movement towards braver and more impactful action. The dates for NRW commemorate two significant milestones in the reconciliation journey: the successful 1967 referendum, and the High Court Mabo decision, respectively.

Hear the voice of our nurses
In recognition of the contribution of nurses to our everyday lives, on the anniversary of Florence Nightingale’s birth, we celebrate International Nurses Day on 12 May.
The theme A voice to lead – A vision for future healthcare aims to showcase how nursing will look into the future.
For 30 years state schools registered nurses have led schools to assist students with health support needs so that they can safely succeed at school and achieve a great future.
Uncover asthma misconceptions
The theme for World Asthma Day is a call to action to address commonly held myths and misconceptions concerning asthma.
Schools can assist students with asthma to safely participate in all aspects of school life.
However, it is important to ensure the school has an up-to-date copy of your child’s asthma action plan.
Speak to us about how we can support your child.
If needed, the school can access the State Schools Nursing Service for training to make sure your child is safe at school.
