School Health Services are delivered in all public secondary schools and colleges across Western Australia. Community Health Nurses provide first point of entry into the health system for children and adolescents and are the key health contact for the school. School staff and Community Health Nurses work in partnership to enhance the health, well-being and educational outcomes for individuals and groups of students.
Our Community Health Nurses collaborate with the Student Services team to provide care for students with particular difficulties. They are skilled in assessing adolescent health needs and frequently engage in health counselling to identify issues, risks and protective factors, provide advice, brief interventions, referral to other services and follow-up care.
The Health Centre, located in the Student Services area, is a place where adolescents can either drop in (ideally at recess or lunch) or make an appointment to discuss health and well-being issues. The recommended pathway for attending the Health Centre is that the student requests permission to leave class by showing his/her diary to the teacher. The student may then walk to Student Services and sign in using their Academy card at which point they may see the Community Nurse.
If deemed unwell enough to be excused from school, the Community Nurse will phone the student’s parent/carer. To improve overall resiliency, we discourage mobile phone messaging between students and parents during the school day as miscommunication regarding illness or injury may lead to confusion and angst for the parent.
Our main focus is to empower students to become self-responsible young adults. It is important to note that we do not dispense any medication and students are encouraged to carry one dose of analgesia e.g. Panadol.
Appointments may be made by phoning 62741320 or emailing HealthCentre.Melville.SHS@education.wa.edu.au.
If there are any changes to your child’s health status or if you simply have a query, please do not hesitate to phone or email the Health Centre.
A Community Nurse is attached to the Health Centre, located in the Student Services area. The role combines health promotion and education, and first aid to students on campus. For more information, please click here.

With increasing student numbers, parking in the Melville Senior High School area can be difficult. It is encouraged that parents simply drop their children off, rather than parking for extended periods of time during a drop-off peak hour. Please note that the staff car parks are not to be used for student drop off / pick up at any time.
Parents who drop off:
Please see the map below for drop off / pick up destinations.
Many students use the public transport system to get to school given Melville Senior High School being located close by to many bus and train stations. Most of the buses drop the students outside the school or at the overpass so there is minimal danger regarding crossing roads.
SmartRiders make taking public transport cheaper and easier. They are a pre-paid card that can be used to ‘tag on’ to any form of Transperth transport. A SmartRider Application is HERE
