Childhood health conditions can affect individuals’ future health status, consequently influencing their performance during adulthood in contributing to the nation’s development. Some of the major health problems among many Indonesian children are poor nutrition, diarrhea, and upper respiratory tract infections, in addition to other common problems like dental caries, obesity, and ear wax. To ensure that these health problems do not persist, it is necessary to carry out early health screening to detect the children's health conditions. This screening was carried out as part of a program by the Public Health Center, namely the School Health Unit, in the form of a complete physical health examination for students from grade 1 to grade 6 at four primary schools in Penjaringan District. The health examination consists of examinations of anthropometry, eyes, skin and hair, ears, teeth and mouth, and urine. The total number of students examined was 1417 students, with 96% of them attending all examinations and as many as 26% being referred to other health facilities. With this screening, it is hoped that the students and teachers can monitor their health conditions, and in case of any health issues, they can be treated immediately. As a follow-up of this activity, the school and the Public Health Center have agreed to sign a memorandum of understanding to establish a good partnership, giving the Public Health Center an opportunity to encourage the teachers or students to care more about their health.
