A series of specialist work books have expressed a special thank you for the Latrobe Special Developmental School in Traralgon.
The School takes Gippsland Regional Medical School students on community placements, which help the medical students gain a better understanding of the needs of a wide variety of people.
A number of medical students spent a day at the Special Developmental School, including Denise Bullen and Amita Roy. Both were delighted to present the work books to the School and its students to say thanks for their placement opportunity.
“It was just wonderful,” Denise said. “We were able to spend the whole day at the school and get a different perspective on working with many different people. It was an excellent experience.”
