Immunisation Policy
Parents enrolling their children at Dubbo West Preschool are requested to provide Medicare Immunisation history statement to prove that their child is appropriately immunised in relation to their age. Children who are not immunised will be excluded from the preschool
Children who are on a AIR Medical Exemption or a catch-up schedule will be excluded from the preschool if there is an outbreak of a disease which immunisation protects.
Parents MUST update their child’s immunisation status at the Preschool when necessary. It is important to note that one notification of a disease is considered an outbreak. The Director must notify the Department of Health of the outbreak and follow their procedures. Notification of the outbreak will be displayed at the Preschool.
