Parents are strongly encouraged to have their children immunised in accordance with the NSW recommended schedule.The Public Health (Amendment) Act 1992 requires parents of all children enrolling in child care to provide documented evidence of the child’s immunisation status.Immunisation is not complusory. However, in the event of an outbreak of a vaccine-preventable disease, unimmunised children will be required to remain at home for the duration of the outbreak for their own protection.Staff are encouraged to have recommended routine immunisations (tetanus, diphtheria, polio, measles, mumps, rubella) and are also recommended to have hepatitis B vaccination.
