New environments and routines at the centre can lead to some children falling ill during this period. But this is typically just a passing phase. If your child is attending school/ childcare for the first time, we will do our best to ensure they adjust as quickly, and as smoothly, as possible.
The wellbeing of the children is paramount. Our cleaner cleans and disinfect the preschool at least twice daily.
Although we take every precaution to prevent and minimise the spread of infectious diseases such as HFMD, they are unfortunately unavoidable throughout the year because of the young age groups of the children at the preschool. When children are taken ill and must remain at home, our preschools continue to incur operating costs. As such, we are unable to refund the fees.
We have daily screening of the mouth and hands when the child arrive in school and if we do notice a child is not well, we will take his/ her temperature. The child will be sponged if he/ she is having a fever and we will contact the parent/ caregiver to bring him/ her to see a doctor.
Being an open compound, it is inevitable that mosquitoes may be found. However, we fog the surrounding frequently. The classrooms are sprayed with Baygon at the end of the day when the classes are over. For children who are mosquitoes prone, we advise parents to allow the child to wear a mosquitoes patch or to apply insect repellent on the hands and legs.
Our centers are secured so that only authorised staff and families may enter. No child will be released to any unknown person without written authorisation and proper identification. Besides, our centers are equipped with fire extinguishers. We obtain all necessary fire safety certificates before commencing operations.
