Immunisation is the safest and most effective way to provide protection for you and your tamariki’s health. For more information view the NZ immunisation schedule. The NZ Immunisation Schedule recommends vaccinations for students at 11 and 12 years of age. Auckland, Counties Manukau and Waitematā DHBs work in partnership with schools to offer these vaccines at school in year 7 and year 8. The SBIP is delivered by Public Health Nurses who are experienced in working with school-age children across a variety of health needs. Vaccines offered in schools are: Vaccine School Year Number of doses More information Tetanus/Diphtheria/Pertussis (Boostrix) Year 7 1 dose This is a booster dose. Last given at 4 years old.

Students are given information and consent forms to take home. Caregivers are asked to read all the information provided, complete and sign the consent form and return it to their child’s school. Students who are absent on the day of the nurses’ visit will be offered a catch-up vaccination at a subsequent school visit. If the student is not vaccinated at school, caregivers will be notified to visit their enrolled primary care provider for this. All children under 18 years of age are eligible to receive NZ schedule vaccines, regardless of immigration or citizenship status. It is recommended for best protection that adolescents receive their vaccinations on time. Caregivers who choose to wait until their child is older will need to arrange for vaccination at their enrolled primary care provider. Further information about vaccine-preventable diseases and the benefits/risks of immunisation can be found at this website: The Immunisation Advisory Centre. Distance education/home schooled students: Students who are enrolled in distance education or who are home schooled are advised to attend their enrolled primary care provider for free age-appropriate vaccinations.
