This message from the City of Whittlesea only applies to students that have missed the following:

Year 7 and Year 10 Vaccination Reminder

The City of Whittlesea have completed their visit to our school to vaccinate our Year 7 and Year 10 students for 2022, however some students did not return a consent card and therefore missed out on these important vaccinations.

Year 7 students were due for HPV and Boostrix vaccines and our Year 10 students  were due for Meningococcal ACWY vaccine as per the National Immunisation Schedule.

Further information on these vaccines can be found at School-based vaccination - Whittlesea Council

In order for your child to catch-up, please attend your local GP or book into a Council public session at City of Whittlesea | TryBooking

If you require further information please call the Immunisation Team at Council on 9217 2170 or email teamfamilyimmunisation@whittlesea.vic.gov.au

WFC Food Hub Community Consultation 2022

WCC has received funding to establish a food hub at the Whittlesea Food Collective, based at Melbourne Polytechnic in Epping. Our aim is to improve access to fresh, affordable and culturally appropriate food for the local community.We will be setting up a market as well as running some food-related activities and programs. We would love to know more about how you access fruit and vegetables now and any ideas you have for how to make sure our Food Hub meets your needs!

 The survey will only take approximately 3 - 5 minutes to complete.
