It is ok to feel a bit scared or anxious. Please talk to the school nurse if you are.

Make sure you eat breakfast on the morning of the vaccination.
Bring an extra snack and drink with you on the day of vaccination to avoid getting faint or dehydrated.
Stay well hydrated for the rest of the day by drinking enough water
Wear loose and comfortable clothing on the day of vaccination, for example, your sports uniform.
If you have questions, please talk to the vaccination team on the day or the school nurse before the vaccination day.
Do not “pamper" your arm if it is a bit sore. Use it as normal otherwise it will get worse.
Have some pain medication if it is really painful or you have a headache the next day.
