Immunisation Program 

School Immunisation Program - Year 7 Students 2024

The URL consent links for the Year 7’s will close at 9am on Wednesday 17 April. 

The Wyndham Council Immunisation service will be visiting your child’s school on Thursday 18 April to administer these vaccines

The National Immunisation Program schedule recommends your Year 7 student receive the following vaccines FREE:

HUMAN PAPILLOMA VIRUS(HPV) GARDASIL®9

The HPV vaccine GARDASIL®9 protects against seven HPV types which cause over 90% of cervical cancer in women and over 95% of HPV-related cancers in both men and women. It also protects against an additional two HPV types which cause 90% of genital warts. The vaccine provides best protection when given at a younger age and before a person becomes sexually active. The vaccine prevents disease but does not treat existing HPV infections. A single dose of the HPV vaccine provides protection against the Human Papillomavirus for all healthy adolescents.

DIPHTHERIA, TETANUS AND PERTUSSIS (Whooping Cough) - BOOSTRIXA 

single dose boosts your child’s immunity to Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis (Whooping Cough).

Consent for the vaccines is to be given on-line via the Central Immunisation Records Victoria (CIRV) portal.
