Year 10 Meningococcal Vaccine

The Department of Health is offering parents of students in Year 10 the opportunity to have their child vaccinated against Meningococcal ACWY.

 

This vaccine protects against four serogroups of meningococcal bacteria: A, C, W and Y.

 

The Department of Health Immunisation team will be visiting the College on Wednesday, 19 June, and Thursday, 20 June, to administer the vaccine.

 

Parents/guardians can register their child online by following the instructions attached and registering with the QR code as per instructions.

 

 

Please register your consent or decline for your child by Friday, 24 May.

 

Students are vaccinated in school by a nursing team with expertise in immunisation.
