Immunisations and Infectious Diseases

Immunisations

Children who are not fully immunised may be required to remain at home should there be an outbreak of a disease for which they are not immunised. Particular arrangements will be worked out by the local public health unit in consultation with the school.

Infectious Diseases

The following table provides regulations from NSW Health regarding infectious diseases. Children’s hair should be checked each week for head lice. All eggs should be removed before the child is returned to school.
