HEALTH ROOM NEWS
Well, we have experienced some real variations in the weather lately! I know this happens every January but each year we reach this point I seem to have forgotten! Our minds are great like that- just able to push away the unpleasant and focus on what is good! What a great protection we have built in!
With the New Year past we have finished our very successful H1N1 Clinic. The children were wonderful and we had great support from volunteers and staff alike. We have done a very good job at CTES keeping most sickness at bay. The children are diligent about good hygiene and have had good support from their teachers and families. Oh, we have the normal run of colds and upset tummies, but all in all we are faring well. Keep up the good work! We still have most of winter to go!
I also want to let all of you know the Health Department in Springfield is offering, free of charge, H1N1 immunizations for ANYONE who requests it. Just give a call to find out their hours and a time you might go over. The number is 885-5778.
I have included in this issue of The Cavendish Corner information about Free Tax Preparation offered by SEVCA and the United Way. Please give me a call if you have any questions.
Just a reminder that indeed Winter is still here and most likely will be for a couple more months! In fact this weekend threatens to be quite cold and blustery! Help your student be prepared with the necessary clothing for the day. Sometimes we can help our children remember if we place what they will need the next day right by the door with their bag the night before.
Thanks for all the good things you are doing with your children!
