Immunisation protects more than you and your child’s health. It helps stop the spread of illness to your family, neighbours, friends and the community. It is a simple, safe and effective way to protect everyone against certain harmful diseases. It uses the human body’s natural defence mechanism to build resistance against these diseases. The risks involved with contracting one of these diseases is far greater than the very small risk from immunisation.
Child and adolescent scheduled vaccines are available for free for all Medicare card holders.
Free scheduled vaccines for children and adolescents with a Medicare card include:
- Diphtheria, Tetanus, Pertussis (Whooping Cough)
- Hepatitis B

We can’t provide immunisation services to residents or families who are not registered with Medicare or who are ineligible to access Medicare services. If you need more information, please call Medicare on 132 011.
Please bring your Medicare card, your child’s Health and Development Book (blue book) and any other relevant immunisation records. If your child has been vaccinated overseas, you will need a copy of the vaccination records.
In South Australia, the School Immunisation Program offers funded vaccinations for male and female students in:
Year 7
- Human Papillomavirus (HPV) vaccines (Gardasil 9) (course of one injection)
- Adult/Adolescent Diphtheria, Tetanus and Pertussis (Boostrix) (single injection)
Year 10
- Meningococcal B vaccines (Bexsero) (course of two injections)

These vaccines are all provided free of charge and consent forms or cards will be distributed by your school. It is important that you return the completed consent, even if you do not want your child immunised.
If you haven’t received a consent form or card, please contact your child’s school. If your child has missed a school immunisation session, you will be notified and given the option of attending a public immunisation session or your GP.
