No Jab, No Play
From Friday 7 August 2020, it will be mandatory for children attending an early childhood service to be up-to-date with vaccinations.
Early childhood services are also required to keep a copy of all approved immunisation records for the duration a child is enrolled in their service. Retaining immunisation records onsite will enable a faster response time during a vaccine preventable disease outbreak, and help protect vulnerable children.
Parents are required to provide approved immunisation records upon enrolment, and at other specific ages throughout the childโs attendance at these centres below.
- childcare centres
- family day care
- pre-schools
- kindergartens
- early learning centres
An approved immunisation record is a childโs immunisation history statement from the Australian Immunisation Register (AIR).
Check the AIR to see your childโs records, and talk to your immunisation provider to ensure your child is fully immunised.
