We want to make sure everyone who wants them can access immunisations easily and for free.
On Mon 8, Tues 9 and Wed 10 June, any OP student who would like to choose to receive a FREE vaccination (and free kai of course, because we know food always helps) can do so at one of our three 'Boosted OP' events on campus.
We will be offering FREE vaccines to ākonga to offer additional protection against:
- Meningococcal disease (normally $150)
- Flu (normally $15 +)
- Covid (normally free but you have to go to it!)
You are also able to let us know if you are interested in receiving vaccines for:
- Measles, Mumps & Rubella
- HPV
If we have enough interest, we will strongly consider offering these as well.
If you can't make it to one of the on-campus events, you have the option to let us know so you can receive the vaccines in a clinic at another time.
Register your interest here so we know how many vaccines to order >
Or use this QR code:
Please register by Monday 1 June at 5pm.
You are also very welcome to come along just to find out more about the different vaccines before you make a decision. And enjoy the kai of course.
We respect that people have a range of different ideas about vaccination, and would like to request that it is returned in all directions.
