H1N1 Measures
24.06.2009
Dear Parents, Greetings from Alison’s Letterland Child
Care Centre & Baby Buddies Limited.
As always, the health and safety of our parents and children is
our first priority. We always maintain strict health policies
and concern for our school environments to ensure that your
children are properly supervised and protected.
As for our programmes this summer, we will continue with
our scheduled programmes as planned and continue for
the rest of the summer. We will continue the promotion of Summer
School Programmes and maintain positive, safe and healthy areas
for your child. We will stay open and responsive to the changing
environment, respond to HK Government and Health Officials
recommendations to inform parents and protect your children’s
health.
We will continue our policies to our best standards and ensure
the safety of your children at our Schools:
► Hygiene – we will make sure that all of our
centre’s and equipment are sufficiently clean and hygienic
through regular, thorough cleaning.
► Hand washing – children will be required to
wash their hands throughout the school day, especially before
eating. We will also have alcohol-based gel and hand wipes
available to wash hands when away from washroom facilities. We
will also encourage parents to send anti-bacterial gel or wipes
along with their children.
► Food – the snack times at our school will be
served in individual portions. Also, children will not be
allowed to share any food or snacks with their peers.
► Water – children will be required to bring
and use their own water bottles. We will also prohibit the
children from sharing drinks.
► Body temperature checks/sick children – we
request all parents to keep children who feel ill at home, and
to check their children’s temperatures every day before coming
to school. We will check every parent/ helper/ child’s
temperature before entering the centre’s. If parent/ helper/
child’s temperature exceeds 37.5 degrees Celsius we will ask the
parent/ helper/ child to leave the centre and to seek medical
attention.
► Contact with human seasonal influenza / human swine
influenza patients – any parent/ helper/ child or staff
who has had close contact with a human seasonal influenza /
human swine influenza patient will be requested to stay away
from centre’s and will be compensated accordingly. (The symptoms
of human swine influenza are usually similar to those of human
seasonal influenza and include fever, lethargy, loss of appetite
and coughing. Some people infected with swine flu may also have
a runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.)
► Education – we will be taking advantage of
the many “teachable moments” each day at each centre to educate
and reinforce learning about proper personal hygiene.
► School staff – our school staff will be
trained on how to maintain proper hygiene and regularly clean
equipment at the schools.
Compensation
All compensation related to missed or cancelled schools due to
influenza outbreaks, in the form of coupons or refunds, will be
dealt with on a case by case basis and with fairness and
sensitivity.
We will add any additional measures to ensure safety as we see
appropriate given the future progress relating to the influenza
situation. We will continue to follow the advice of the
Department of Health, as well as private medical experts. In the
case of any updates, parents will be notified by Alison’s
Letterland Child Care Centre & Baby Buddies Staff.
We thank you for your understanding and consideration regarding
these difficult matters, and we look forward to working together
with all of you to continue to provide “a happy and save
environment” for you and your children. We always welcome any
further feedback or suggestions relating to this or any other
aspect of our programmes. Please contact us by email at
