Thursday 18 February - Senior Students (Years 10-12)

Tuesday 23 February - Junior Students (Years 7-9)

Friday 5 March (catch-up)

Have your child's school memories captured forever.  Your student should have bought home their unique MSP Photography envelope for you to be able to order school photos. If you haven't received an envelope or need an extra one please collect one from Student Services.

Ensure your order is placed on photo day to avoid any late fees

Ordering online using your child's Unique Shoot Key (on their envelope) is the easiest, safest and most secure way to order. If you don't know their Unique Shoot Key please contact MSP on 07 5668 9110.

If enclosing payment inside an envelope, please ensure the correct money is provided as no change is given. Cash, cheques and money orders are all acceptable.

Don't seal envelopes inside each other. You can pay for all children in one envelope, however each child needs to hand in their own envelope on Photo Day to the photographer. Please indicate on the child's envelope that contains all sibling payments, the names of the children you are paying for.

All students whether ordering photos or not, need to hand in their photo envelope to the photographer on photo day. This is how your student is identified to the photographer. 

Any queries, please feel free to contact MSP at admin.gcnr@msp.com.au or tel: 07 5668 9110.

  

The School Immunisation Program

Schools play an invaluable role in looking after the health of their students. Immunisation against a number of diseases is one strategy which contributes to the wellbeing of both the individual and the community as a
whole.

School immunisation programs are regarded as a highly efficient and cost-effective way to immunise an age group which can otherwise be difficult to reach.
Queensland Health acknowledges the important role schools play in helping service providers conduct a vaccination clinic.
Queensland Health’s annual School Immunisation Program (SIP) provides secondary school students in state schools across Queensland the opportunity to be vaccinated against a range of
diseases.

The following vaccines are offered for Year 7 students:
• Human papillomavirus (HPV)
• Diphtheria-tetanus-pertussis (whooping cough)

The following vaccine is offered for Year 10 students:
• Meningococcal A, C, W and Y

Year 7 parents will receive the on-line consent on 22nd Feb 2021

Immunisation dates

Year 7 students:

  • Term 1 Week 8 Tuesday 16 March and
  • Term 4 Week 2 Tuesday 12 October

Year 10 students:

  • Term 3 Week 6 Monday 16 August

Any parent/caregiver that is unable to access online forms may either visit Junior Secondary Student Services office to collect and complete the form or have your child take the form home for completion and return to PBC.

Parent/caregivers who do not return a consent form will not be contacted. Students will not be vaccinated without a valid consent form.
