Stay Vigilant Against Gastroenteritis
Dear parents,
An increased number of students having gastro- symptoms was observed. May I remind every student to be vigilant with the following preventive measures:
- Ensure proper personal hygiene;
- Wash hands thoroughly before handling food and eating, after using the toilet;
- Ensure proper storage of food;
- When disposing of vomitus, wash hands straight after;
- Maintain good indoor ventilation.
If your children develop gastro symptoms, including abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrohea, etc., please:
- See the doctor;
- Report to the school;
- Make sure he/she is well hydrated;
- Avoid dairy products/cold drinks/raw foods/spicy & oily foods for a couple of days; and
- Have plenty of rest.
Thank you very much! And take care!
