The second round of Year 7 school immunisations are being conducted at our school later in the Term.
Felltimber campus: Wednesday 27th October 2021
Huon campus: Wednesday 3rd November 2021
The following vaccines will be offered on this day:
| YEAR LEVEL | VACCINES OFFERED |
| Year 7 Male and Female students | GARDASIL9 (HPV) Dose 2 – Final Dose |
These vaccinations are funded as part of the Victorian Secondary Schools Immunisation Program. Should your child miss out on starting their vaccination course this year they may not be eligible to receive them for free in subsequent years in the school program. Consent cards should have already been signed and completed for these vaccinations earlier this year.
Please ensure that your child is wearing their sports uniform or a short sleeve shirt on the vaccination day (without any long sleeved layers underneath), this will enable a smooth vaccination process.
Please note that no vaccines can be administered within 7 days of receiving any COVID vaccination. Please advise Council’s Immunisation Team on immunise@wodonga.vic.gov.au before the vaccination day if this applies to your child. You are advised to bare this in mind if you are booking a COVID vaccination appointment.
Parents/guardians who wish to withdraw their consent for any reason may do so by emailing your withdrawal of consent to Council’s Immunisation Team on immunise@wodonga.vic.gov.au before the vaccination day.
If your Year 7 child missed the first dose of vaccines please contact council’s immunisation team on 1800 655 360 to obtain a consent card (if consent card previously not returned). Council can administer the first dose of vaccines at school if we have a signed consent card. To complete the vaccine course, students must attend a council immunisation session or their GP, 6 months after dose 1 was given.
If your child has been vaccinated elsewhere and you have not already done so, please notify council’s immunisation team on 1800 655 360.
If you DO NOT wish for your child to receive any further vaccinations or if you have any enquiries about the program or your child’s vaccinations, please contact Wodonga Council’s Immunisation Team on 1800 655 360.
