Mental Health Initiative; KidsMatter.
In an effort to collaboratively improve the working

Primary School and what you think is important for
schools to consider to better support children’s mental
health and wellbeing. The answers provided by you are
completely anonymous and are stored securely by
KidsMatter and Mt Eliza Primary School. Results from the
survey may be used by us for the purposes of informing
