COVID-19 vaccination for students aged 12 years and over

As schools prepare for the start of Term 1, 2022, parents and carers of students aged 12 years and above are reminded to book their children’s Pfizer or Moderna vaccination as soon as possible. Bookings are available through the Vaccine Clinic Finder. 
NSW Health advice indicates that vaccinations offer excellent protection against COVID-19 in children. Even though COVID-19 in children is often milder than in adults, there’s strong evidence to support vaccinating children.
Vaccines give the immune system a helping hand to protect against serious illness and possible long-term effects from COVID-19. Vaccinations also help to protect friends, family and our school community by reducing the spread of the virus.

All staff are also advised that booster vaccinations will be included in an updated Public Health Order as announced by the NSW Government on Friday 7 January 2022. Further
