Catch-up Vaccines for students in Years 7 and 10

Has your student missed vaccines due to lockdowns in 2020 or 2021, or during secondary school?

All students in Year 7 and Year 10 receive FREE vaccines. During the pandemic, students may have missed one or more of these vaccines.

In Year 7 students are funded for two vaccines:

· A single booster dose of diphtheria, tetanus and whooping cough (Boostrix)
· 2 doses of Human papillomavirus (HPV) 6 months apart (Gardasil)

In Year 10 students have a single dose of Meningococcal ACWY.

Your students' vaccine immunisation record will appear on the Australian Immunisation Register (accessed using your or for student over 14 years of age the students, their Mygov account).

If any vaccines have been missed, you can book into Frankston City Council’s dedicated Secondary School Session on Tuesday 22 November. Appointments can be made online here.

If you have any questions please email the Frankston Immunisation Team immunisation@frankston.vic.gov.au or call their Central Booking Maternal Child Health and Immunisation team on 9784 1756 selecting the immunisation team option 3.
