A healthy school includes working in partnership with public health to help students in schools catch up and keep up on their routine immunizations. Consider the following activities as part of your health and well-being action plan:
Have a Process in Place for Student Registration
Please ensure that all new students report their immunization to the health unit at the time of registration. Forward any hard copy immunization records you receive from students or their parents/families to the health unit at [email protected] or by Purolator.

Letter’s will be sent home in student back packs.
Raise Awareness about School Required Vaccinations
Share information with families to help their child catch up, keep up, and stay on track with routine vaccinations that required for attending school, under the Immunization of School Pupils Act.
