Health & Hygiene
Whether a child is just starting school or resuming classes after vacations,
they are exposed to germs in many ways – while playing, sharing food with
friends and mixing closely with other children. Germs can spread very
quickly from child to child when they cough, sneeze or eat contaminated
food.
There is more to hygiene than just hand‑washing. Schools provide an
important space where good hygiene can be demonstrated at its best and
habits such as regular hand‑washing can become ingrained at a young age.
Our Health & Hygiene Practices
-
Hand‑washing routine: Students are guided to wash their
hands thoroughly with antiseptic cleansers, especially after using the
washroom, playing outside or when in close contact with someone who might
be ill.
-
Nail and personal care: Fingernails are kept short and
clean to avoid germs transferring to the eyes, nose and mouth. Students
are regularly checked and encouraged to maintain personal hygiene.
-
Oral hygiene: Proper brushing and basic oral care
practices are reinforced so that good habits are built from an early age.
-
Cough & sneeze etiquette: Children are taught to
cover their mouth and nose using a handkerchief or tissue while coughing
or sneezing.
-
Clean classrooms: Regular cleaning of classroom
furniture and floors ensures a bug‑free learning and teaching environment.
-
Safe drinking water: RO systems are provided on every
floor for safe and clean drinking water.
-
Medical support: A doctor and nurses help maintain a
healthy environment in the school and take care of the health needs of
students and teachers, including regular medical check‑ups.
-
Awareness programmes: Students are taught the importance
of personal hygiene, good diet habits and physical activity through
audio‑visual presentations, activities and expert talks by specialist
doctors.
