‘WELLBEING HUB’

We have a new exciting project proposal for Nowra East Public School and we

need YOUR input and contribution!

The ‘Wellbeing Hub’ aims to provide easy access to services and organisations

exclusively for the students and families of Nowra East Public School. You will

have no need to travel or miss out on school, when you can come in and access

services in our ‘Hub’.

In order to better support our community, we need to hear about what services

you would like to see and use at NEPS. Your feedback is VITAL to the

development of this project as we want to ensure that the services best

support our students and community.

On Thursday 12 May between 1:30pm and 3:00pm, we

will be having a FREE BBQ LUNCH in the community

garden. This will be your chance to talk about the

services that you would like to see coming to NEPS

and have your say in the development of this exciting

new project. If you have any questions or wish to submit your suggestions

early, please don’t hesitate to contact the school via phone or Facebook

website.

We look forward to working with our community and hearing your feedback.
