Year 7 Vaccinations

In Year 7, students are offered free vaccines for Diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (dTpa) Papillomavirus (HPV) at Santa Sabina College on Tuesday 12 August 2025.

Vaccinations will only be provided if consent has been received. 

How to provide consent:

  1. To complete online consent for your child’s school vaccinations, visit: https://nswhealth.service-now.com/school
  2. Follow the steps to log in to your existing ServiceNSW account. This is the same account you may already use to renew your driver’s licence. If you don’t have a ServiceNSW account, refer to ServiceNSW to create one. 
  3. Update or confirm your personal details in ServiceNSW as required. 
  4. Complete the School Vaccination Consent Form for your child/ren. You will need to:
    1. Enter your child’s personal details. 
    2. Provide the Medicare card details for you and your child. 
    3. Read the linked Parent Information Sheet and privacy statement.
    4. Provide consent.

If you or your child do not have a Medicare card, consent can still be provided by requesting a paper-based consent form directly from me.

The benefits of providing consent online:

  • easily update your child’s details
  • receive SMS and/or email notifications when vaccinations are given 
  • faster upload of vaccination records to the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR).
