The State Government kids pop-up vaccination clinics at Healesville Sanctuary which are being held on Saturday and Sundays have been opened up for all children

Originally, the ‘K-Pop’ vaccination clinics were designated to provide a fun, stress-reduced vaccination experience for vulnerable children.

Now, they have been expanded to all kids aged between five to eleven years old, in a bid to boost vaccination rates in our smallest Victorians.

With current restrictions, primary school children from grade three and above have to wear masks beyond the easing of restrictions on Saturday 26 February.

Covid commander Jeroen Weimar said the K-pop clinics make vaccination a less scary prospect for children.

“It’s creating a safe and enjoyable place,” Mr Weimar said.

The service will offer family members to get their booster shots.

Bookings are required.
