Students in Year 7 are recommended and funded for:

If you have any questions for your secondary school student vaccines, please email our immunisation team at immunisation@frankston.vic.gov.au

Students who have missed vaccines at school in either Year 7 or Year 10 can be seen at any of our community-based immunisation sessions. Online bookings for these sessions can be made here.
