Health Information

A reminder to all parents and carers that the student immunisation session is on Wednesday 10th of May at 1.30 pm.  This session includes both Year 7 and Year 10 schedule immunisation and the seasonal influenza vaccination.  If any parents have not yet returned their consent forms, please do so tomorrow to enable your child to utilize this free service by Boroondara Council.

As we move into the colder months it is timely to reinforce the benefits of Influenza and Covid vaccinations for our students and our wider school community. The best way to protect them from the threat of Influenza and Covid infections is by immunisation in consultation with your General Practitioner or Paediatrician. By immunising the family circle around them also adds that extra layer of protection. 

Here at Belmore School, we also encourage all our staff to receive the annual flu vaccination to enhance the protective levels for our students.

It is also timely to remind all families that if your child is unwell with any level of respiratory illness they must stay home from school until symptom free to protect our immunocompromised students from a simple virus or infections.  A simple cold is not so simple for many of our students.
