Dear Early Childhood Education and Care Educators and Staff

Thank you for the important work you are doing during our response to COVID-19.
We are writing to invite you to book a priority appointment at your closest vaccination centre - a vaccination is one of the best ways to protect you and your loved ones against COVID-19.

When you make your first booking you will also need to make your second booking.
