Mana Kidz at East Tāmaki School

At East Tāmaki School, we are lucky to have two Mana Kidz Nurses visit our school every day. These nurses provide a range of services free of charge to all students who have consent. There are several ways your child can be seen by our school nurse:

  • Teachers can refer students to our nurses.
  • You can call the school and request your child be seen by a nurse.
  • Nurses will do regular classroom checks on each child.

For any questions or referrals, you can email Sholyn at sholyn.lal@tamakihealth.co.nz
