Healthy Kids Check for 4 Year-old Children

A Healthy Kids Check is available to all children at or around the time of their 4 year old immunisation and helps to ensure that children are healthy, fit and ready to learn when they start school.

The aim of the Healthy Kids Check is to improve the health and well-being of Australian children and promote early detection of lifestyle risk factors, delayed development and illness. It also provides the opportunity to discuss with your doctor or practice nurse guidance on healthy lifestyles and early intervention strategies for your child.
