Vaccinations

travel-vaccinations

We would suggest initiating contact with a doctor as soon as practical if you haven’t done so already in regards to vaccination requirements for Cambodia. Some particular vaccinations are required to be given over a period of time and you may not be able to finish the cycle if you leave it too soon before we leave.

Parents/guardians are responsible for ensuring that students are appropriately vaccinated based on advice from a doctor. As a school, we are not in a position to give such medical advice, however a number of useful links below may provide you with some information that you may wish to consider discussing with your doctor.

A doctor will generally want to know where and when you are travelling, and for our trip, you can advise them that we will be predominantly in Phnom Penh, and Siem Reap; we won’t be staying in rural areas.
