Child Immunisation is FREE

Immunisation protects you and your child(ren) from serious diseases throughout life.

The Ministry of Health supports immunisation. However, it is your choice whether or not to immunise your child.

The New Zealand National Immunisation Schedule is a series of immunisations (including boosters) given at specific times between the ages of six weeks and twelve years. To get the best possible protection, have the immunisations on time, every time.

Immunisation is FREE for children under 12 years and can be carried out at our practice. Make an appointment today.
