Secondary school immunisation - information for parents

Immunisation records are held at ACIR for all children born from 1997. For a copy of immunisation records for children phone ACIR on 1800 653 809. You can also access these records directly from a Medicare office.

Council administers a comprehensive immunisation program for infants, children and adults, including secondary school children through our School Immunisation program.

All eligible children can receive vaccinations on the Australian Standard Vaccination Schedule free of charge, through Council Immunisation sessions. Appointments are not necessary at these sessions but you must bring along the child’s health record book and Medicare card. You will need to stay for 15 minutes after vaccination, to allow for observation.

Whooping cough, Hepatitis B and flu vaccines are also available through Council immunisation sessions, at a cost. Visits to workplaces also occur throughout the year to supply these vaccines to staff. For more information or to book a visit contact Council.
