2 weeks back, C came back with notes in her bag about some of her classmates coming down with chickenpox (thankfully she had her vaccine already) and then there were letters about Hand Foot Mouth disease and how some of her classmates were also infected. I got a little nervous but Josiah ensured parents that the affected children were resting at home.
Then several days later, Josiah sent parents warning letters to close the school for 2 weeks if parents continued to send their children who were not 100% well to school.
This morning, I brought C for class as I was on medical leave and I must say, I felt comforted at the measures and precaution taken by the school. All the children had to take their temperature, their mouths and gums checked and finally, they had to remove their socks and shoes for another teacher to look at their feet and hands. It was time consuming, after all we are talking about a school with many kids here but this is honestly very necessary.
While waiting for C's turn, she caught sight of her best friend, Regina and I finally could put a face to the very familiar name. I have seen Regina several times in the past although then I didn't know her name. Regina is a very pretty girl with light brown hair and very fair skin. She is also a very tall girl for her age.
When I was packing C's snack last night, she insisted on me packing in an extra piece for Regina.
These cheese puffs look really tasty and they smelled very good when I got them. Guess I will try to get them for C next week too when I go to town.
