Vaping at Schools

NSW Health

Unfortunately, schools across NSW are having problems with students ‘vaping’ or using e-cigarettes.

Vaping refers to the use of battery-operated devices that heat a liquid to be inhaled.

These items are banned in all schools. There is a lot of information from NSW Health regarding the dangers of vaping, can you please discuss this with your child.

The NSW Department of Education has advised schools that students should not bring e-cigarettes or e-cigarette accessories onto school premises or use them during school-based activities. Consistent with Department of Education and school policy - vaping, selling or being in the possession of e-cigarettes will result in disciplinary action that may lead to a student being suspended from school.
