About UsHospital School SA provides educational programs
by focusing on personalised learning through
targeted teaching for students and young people.
Schooling can be negotiated for siblings and
children of long term patients from remote, regional
or interstate locations who are unable to attend their
own school during their time in Adelaide.
Hospital School SA delivers the Early Years Learning
Framework, Australian Curriculum and SACE in a
classroom setting for all years:
· Preschool
· Junior Primary: Reception to Year 4
· Middle School: Year 5 to Year 9
· Senior School: Year 10 to Year 12
We collaborate with individual schools and other
educational institutions to ensure continuity in
students’ learning.
Enrollment Referral Form
The initial referral needs to be completed by the
Parent or Guardian and Social Work Team at the RAH
or QEH. Please make a time to meet with Hospital
School SA staff to discuss the information on the
form.
Students can commence at the beginning of the next
school day once all the information has been
completed and any relevant documentation received
(e.g. Health Support Plans, NEP or IEP).
Students must be signed in when they attend the
Hospital School classroom and signed out each time
they leave by the responsible caregiver, guardian,
Play Therapist or medical professional. The sign
in/out book is situated at the front office area.
Sign In / Sign Out
Lunchtime care is available for siblings and
children. Please complete a Lunch Time Care
Arrangements Consent Form for this to occur.
Lunch must be provided following our guidelines
(see Healthy Eating section). Our staff will take
students to a pre-arranged WCH activity area
below or if your child/children are not staying for
both sessions please pick them up by the end of
the AM class which is 12pm. Students attending
creche will eat their lunch there after 12pm. From
12-12.20pm students who are going to the
Starlight Express Room will eat their lunch in the
classroom.
The options for lunchtime care are:
Crèche
If the students are 7 years or younger, parents will
need to apply for enrolment to the WCH Crèche.
The parent/caregiver needs to organize daily
bookings with crèche and the parent/caregiver
must be at the WCH during the lunchtime care in
case of an emergency. (see crèche for more
information and enrolment form).

the Hospital School. If your child has any food
allergies or specific dietary requirements please

These can be borrowed by in-patients, out-patients
and their families. Laptops can be borrowed by
inpatients during school hours.
