Year 8 HPV Vaccination - reminder

This will take place on Tuesday 4 November.

A reminder to all parents/caregivers,

The second dose of the Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine will be given to year 8 students on Tuesday 4th November. If a student is away from school that day we will offer catch up clinics at school on Monday 17 November.

Only students whose parent or caregiver provided consent in Term 1 in writing will be given the vaccine at school. If you provided consent at this time you do not need to fill out another consent form.

Please see the attached letter from the Public Health Nursing Team for more information.

Should you have any questions about the programme, please phone:
