Before School Checks
The final Well Child/Tamariki Ora health checks are at 4 years old before your child goes to school and includes a free hearing and eyesight test.
The nurse will:
- Check your child’s height and weight
- Check your child’s teeth
- Ask if your child has been immunised
- Ask you questions about your child’s learning and development and strengths and difficulties
- Ask you questions about your child’s health and wellbeing
- Provide you advice and support about your child’s health and development
