Working to improve eye health
EYE screening sessions have recommenced at primary schools across the district thanks to a band of dedicated volunteers.
Once again members of the Lions Club of Warrnambool will be kept busy visiting schools in the region – with 19 schools already booked in for the program.
“March will be our busiest month, with 11 schools to visit, but it’s wonderful to see schools taking advantage of the Lions eye screening program,” Lions member Sue Amos said.
“Last year, nationally, we aimed to screen 12,000 students and the final figure was 15,000 which made for a very successful year.
“We screened 731 students in our district, which was increase on the previous year’s number, and we hope to see even more students in 2025.”
