School Immunisation Program
Immunisation is important for the prevention of certain diseases within our community. The School Immunisation Program is available for South Australian students in Years 8 to 10. Vaccines delivered through the school program are made available at no cost under the National Immunisation Program. Fully trained and qualified vaccination teams visit the high schools in Port Lincoln each year to deliver the program.
Council no longer organises the school immunisation program.
More information about the School Immunisation Program is available through the SA Health website.
Immunisation records
Immunisation records are recorded on the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR). The AIR is a national register that records vaccines given to people in Australia. To access your immunisation history you will need:
- a myGov account; or
- online Medicare account
