Dear Parents and Carers,
NSW Health will be visiting the College on Tuesday 24 September 2024 as part of the NSW Vaccination Campaign. NSW Health is offering a single dose of HPV and Boostrix (Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis -whooping cough). Students are permitted to wear the sports uniform if they are involved. Please ensure your child eats breakfast on the morning of the vaccination.
Consent for the school vaccinations is done through NSW Health. You can now provide online consent for your child’s routine school vaccinations. Vaccination will only be provided at school if consent has been received by NSW Health. If you would like your child to receive this vaccine, please provide consent as soon as possible as per the instructions below. Please note that under the NSW Health school-based vaccination programme this vaccine is only provided free of charge during your child’s current school year. For more information on school vaccinations, please visit www.health.nsw.gov.au/schoolvaccination or call Liverpool Public Health Unit on (02) 9794 0855. If you require information in another language, please visit www.health.nsw.gov.au/immunisation/Pages/school_vaccination_language.aspx. You will need the following to provide online consent:
