Routine school immunizations

How to receive other child immunizations
If your child needs to receive vaccines other than HPV, Hep B and Meningococcal, you can make an appointment with your doctor or health care provider. You can also refer to getting your child immunized for more details.

Check your child’s vaccine record
Before booking an appointment for your child you will need to check if they’ve already received Human Papillomavirus (HPV), Hepatitis B (Hep B), or Meningococcal ACYW-135.
You can review your child’s immunizations in any of the following ways:
- Check their yellow immunization card.
- View their online immunization record.
- Call your doctor or primary care provider.

- Students under 14 years must provide parent or guardian consent.
- Students between the ages of 14 and 16 years can provide their own consent.
- Students 16 years or older must provide their own consent.
Parents and guardians should go with the student to the appointment if they require medical supervision during immunization.
Book an appointment
These vaccines are free if received from Peel Public Health. You will need to book an appointment. Walk-ins are not available.
