Like other cities and towns around the world, our community has felt the ripple effects of the coronavirus pandemic.
We want to reassure people that Council is doing all it can to protect the wellbeing of our customers, our community and our staff.
People aged 12 and over are currently required to wear masks when visiting our indoor facilities. Checking in by using our provided QR codes is also required.
We continue to closely monitor the latest advice from health authorities and act accordingly.
We encourage you to stay up-to-date with the latest information and advice from:
Getting vaccinated
Booking an appointment
The COVID-19 Vaccine Clinic Finder is the best way to book a vaccination. Find a clinic near you that suits your needs by answering some simple questions. You can use it to check your eligibility and book for yourself, your children, or someone else. Booster vaccines are strongly encouraged to maintain immunity against COVID-19. You can book a booster dose if it has been 3 months or longer since your second dose of COVID-19 vaccine. Find out more here.

COVID-19 check-in card
A COVID-19 check-in card provides an alternative check-in method for customers who don't have smartphones and/or those who are not comfortable using the Service NSW business online webform.
The COVID-19 check-in card is a hard-copy (printed) card with a unique QR code that contains your registered contact details only.
The check-in card does not have any information regarding your vaccination status.
When you enter a COVID Safe business, a staff member scans your card and your visit to the premises is electronically recorded. If the business device is unable to read your QR code, the staff member will enter your details manually into the Service NSW business online webform.
You can create a check-in card on the Service NSW website.
How to get proof of your vaccination
Information on how to access your vaccination certificate is available on the NSW Government website.
Information for people exposed to COVID-19
As the number of people with COVID-19 increases, NSW Health is focusing on contacting people at highest risk of catching/contracting COVID-19.
You may not receive a text message or call from NSW Health after being exposed to a person with COVID-19.
NSW Health are asking people with COVID-19 to tell the people they have spent time with from the 2 days before they started having symptoms or tested positive (whichever came first) that they have COVID-19.
If you are told by someone that you have been in contact with a person who has COVID-19, advice is available on the NSW Health website to understand your risk and what you can do to protect yourself, your family and your community.
How to report a positive rapid antigen test result
You must register a positive rapid antigen test result as soon as possible after you get your result. You are able to add a positive result dating back to 1 January 2022.
You can register a positive test result for yourself, another adult or a child. Each result needs to be reported separately, using the Service NSW app or website.
