The Alberta Coalition for Healthy School Communities and Ever Active Schools hosted Janine Phillips for 2 days as she presented on her work in South Australia. Janine Phillips is the Health Promoting Schools Coordinator at the Centre for Health Promotion, Children Youth and Women’s Health Service in South Australia. Her role is strategic with state-wide responsibility, and requires close collaboration with the three education sectors and other health regions and services.
The SMART Presentation: For the last two years Janine has been involved in the development and trialling of the SMART: School Mapping and Reviewing Tool, which is an online audit and planning tool underpinned by health promoting school principles. This presentation shares information about the development and progress of this project as well as discusses ideas and applications for Alberta, Canada and Australia. Click here [PowerPoint file]
The CHARTER Presentation: The school Health Promotion Charter is the document that ‘mandates’ this approach in schools and was ratified by health, education and child care services early this year in South Australia. Janine has been instrumental in developing and operationalising the charter within health services and school and care sites. She has also developed and commenced an evaluation of a new model of collaborative support to enhance the outcomes of school health and wellbeing initiatives. Click here [PowerPoint file]
