Vaccinations and Doctor Appointments

There were a number of students away on the day of Year 7 & 10 vaccinations last term. Hopefully Doctor Jo will be back next Tuesday to catch up with these students who missed these important vaccinations as well as seeing students who have scheduled appointments.

Influenza Vaccine

Don’t Take The Risk This Season – Get The Flu Vaccine. 

The influenza vaccine is recommended for people aged 6 months and over and provided free to those most at risk from influenza and its complications.

Students in the following groups are eligible to receive a free seasonal influenza vaccine:

Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students 

Students with medical conditions putting them at increased risk of severe influenza and its complications:

• cardiac disease
• chronic respiratory conditions e.g. Asthma
• chronic neurological conditions
• immunocompromising conditions
• diabetes and other metabolic disorders
• renal disease
• hematological disorders

If your student is eligible, the flu shot can be arranged with the School Doctor who can now also see Primary students (together with their parent/Carer)

Contact the School Office to arrange an appointment.

Dental Van

I will have news soon as to when the Dental Van will return to the school to complete appointments.
