Hi Bibbi,
It depends on the child care you work/study at but yes it is almost certain they require everyone, regardless of whether they are staff, students or volunteers to get the flu vaccine every year and provide evidence as well.
This is because people who work with children and in childhood education and care are considered to be at higher risk alongside some other occupations.
In terms of COVID 19 and the flu, the current advice is that everyone should get their annual flu shot as per usual and that's what ECEC services are following.
It's just one of those things that you have to do to study/work.
If your unsure just ask to look at immunisation
policy.
Hope that answers your question.
