Dear Parents/Caregivers,
Mitcham Council run an Immunisation Program for Year 10 students each year, and the 2022 Program will take place on Tuesday 21 June (Bexsero Dose 1 and Nimenrix) and Thursday 25 August Bexsero (Dose 2).
When your child returns back to face to face learning in Week 3, they will be provided with the necessary consent form pack that contains an information sheet and the Consent Card. Could you kindly complete the Consent Card, even if you do not consent and forward it back to us promptly. Forms can be handed to the Middle School Office/Student Services or dropped into Retreat House, or emailed directly to Mandy Hooper, mhooper@stjohns.sa.edu.au.
Unfortunately, immunisations cannot be given if signed forms are not received prior to immunisation days.
As this is a program run by the Council, they will be collecting these forms well before the due date so we ask that they be returned by Friday 3 March or earlier. Mitcham Council will not be accepting consent forms on the day!
Thank you for your assistance in this matter.
Mandy Hooper
Student Services Officer
