Protect your teen from serious disease

School aged kids get free vaccinations to protect them from diseases.
Queensland schools have a vaccination program for students in years 7 & 10. For more information please see the vaccination schedule provided by Queensland Health.
If your teen is not vaccinated at school, catch ups are available and your GP can help with this. Adolescents should get any missed routine childhood vaccinations. They can still get them free under the National Immunisation Program up until they turn 20 years.
Children and adolescents can also get the following free vaccinations if they missed one.
- Human papillomavirus (HPV) up to and including 25 years
- dTpa, meningococcal ACWY and meningococcal B up to and including 19 years
Influenza vaccinations are currently free and recommended for all Queenslanders over 6 months old.
