We provide free vaccinations for children in Glen Eira as part of the National Immunisation Program Schedule.
Due to COVID-19 restrictions, only one parent with one child is allowed at the immunisation sessions. Mask must be worn before entering the immunisation session.
Our immunisation sessions are appointment-based, bookings can be made by clicking on the button.
Our community immunisation sessions are held at the following locations:
We run a special four-year-old session every second month and the children getting immunised get a free show bag.
These vaccinations are recommended to be given to children the month they turn four. Our four-year-old immunisation sessions are by appointment only. Children aged between six months and under five years can also be immunised at the four-year-old session. We kindly ask that only one parent per child attend the session.
Bookings are required. You should bring your child’s health book or immunisation records, and a Medicare card (if you have one).
For further information, contact Council’s Service Centre on 03 9524 3333.
Vaccination against influenza (flu) is important this year. Annual vaccination is our best defence against flu virus and its complications.
ATAGI (Australian Technical Advisory Group on Immunisation) has advised that influenza vaccines can be co-administered (on the same day) with a COVID-19 vaccine. Co-administration with COVID-19 booster vaccines could be a prompt for influenza vaccination.
The highest level of protection occurs in the first 3 to 4 months following vaccination. Annual vaccination should ideally occur before the onset of each influenza season. This is usually from June to September in most parts of Australia but may be atypical this year. Vaccinating from April provides protection before the peak season.
Annual Free flu vaccines under the National Immunisation Program (NIP) for adults aged 65 years and over are available now at the Council’s Community Immunisation sessions.
The influenza vaccine for children over 6 months of age to under 5 years is available during Council’s community sessions.
