Immunisation

Babies and young children

The Victorian immunisation schedule outlines the vaccines provided free of charge to all Victorian children under the National Immunisation Program and the Victorian-funded program. Book an appointment with your family medical practitioner to have your child immunised.

Secondary School Immunisation

Council offers a free Secondary School Immunisation Program at the Daylesford Secondary College based on the National Immunisation Schedule. 

The program is run in conjunction with the Secondary School and there are two scheduled visits at the College per year.

  • Diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (whooping cough) vaccine – single injection
