The immunisations are given by a health professional who comes into the school or kura.
Giving consent
If your school or kura participates, your tamaiti | child will bring home a form for you to fill out and sign, or the school will contact you in another way.
You can let your school know on the form if you would rather take your child to your nurse, doctor or other health provider instead, or if you want to opt out.
The immunisations are free for your child.
More information
To find out if your school or kura offers immunisations, contact them. You can also ask to support your child when they get their immunisations.
Health New Zealand | Te Whatu Ora has information about what types of immunisations are given and at what age.
