Student Health Information

Year 7 Immunisation Program                                                                                        

NSW Health offers all school students free vaccinations recommended by the National Health and Medical Research Council (NHMRC). These vaccines are important and protect students through to adulthood. NSW Health has implemented COVID-19 health measures around the school vaccination program.

At SCEGGS all Year 7 Students will be offered the following vaccines on the following dates:

  • Visit 1: Friday 23 March
  • Visit 2: Wednesday 9 November
  • Diptheria, Tetanus and Pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine as a booster dose for all students
  • Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) vaccine 2 dose course

Further information will be provided in 2022 Parent Vaccination Information Kits and is also available now in many languages at: www.health.nsw.gov.au/schooltranslations  

A Record of Vaccination Card will be given to the student at the time of each vaccination at each school clinic. Please keep these cards for your records and provide a copy to your GP.

If a student is absent for any of the clinics, they will have the opportunity to catch up at the next school visit.


Consent Forms

When available, all Year 7 students will receive consent forms for parents to complete and return to Student Services. Only return the consent form if you wish your daughter to receive the vaccines.

Please note that the consent forms for Year 7 students will need a parent or guardian signature for each vaccine requested. The nurses will not be able to vaccinate any student if their form is not signed.
