We want to inform you of some of our campus procedures to help our campus safe
Pest Control Update | Controle de Pragas


Dear Parents and Students,
 
We inform you that we will carry out mosquito/dengue pest control at the school on Saturday, March 16th, starting at 10 am.

We will carry out this procedure on a monthly bases and have the following dates scheduled:
  • April 13th
  • May 18

We also take the following steps to keep our campus safe from pests:

  • Our campus is up to date with our pest control certificates.

  • The maintenance and cleaning teams are alert to the importance of eliminating mosquito breeding sites and not leaving stagnant water in pots, vases, or plastic receptacles. 

  • When the city government launches campaigns to combat Aedes aegypti, we always open the campus to receive inspections and treatments, as we want to be part of the fight against dengue.

  • All our water tanks are sealed, and they are cleaned by our staff every six months.

  • The rain gutters are cleaned every week.

  • Our swimming pool is treated every week.

Parents may send repellent with their children. We kindly ask that you teach them how to safely apply the spray or lotion, avoiding sensitive areas like the eyes, mouth, nose, and wounds.
 
We kindly ask you to let our nurse know if your child has a confirmed case of dengue, remembering how important it is to keep your child home if they show any symptoms of sickness, especially a fever.

We count on your partnership in making and keeping our campus safe for our community.

Sincerely,

School Leadership

Prezados Pais e Alunos,

Comunicamos que no dia 16 de março, sábado, faremos a dedetização para mosquito/dengue na escola na parte da manhã a partir das 10 horas.

Faremos esse procedimento mensalmente e já temos as seguintes datas agendadas:
  • 13 de abril
  • 18 de maio 

Também tomamos as seguintes medidas para manter nosso campus protegido contra pragas:

  • Nosso campus está em dia com nossos certificados de controle de pragas.

  • As equipes de manutenção e limpeza estão atentas à importância de eliminar os locais de reprodução de mosquitos e de não deixar água parada em potes, vasos ou recipientes de plástico. 

  • Quando a prefeitura lança campanhas de combate ao Aedes aegypti, sempre abrimos o campus para receber inspeções e tratamentos, pois queremos fazer parte do combate à dengue.

  • Todos os nossos tanques de água são vedados e limpos por nossa equipe a cada seis meses.

  • As calhas de chuva são limpas semanalmente.

  • Nossa piscina é tratada semanalmente.

Os pais podem enviar repelente com seus filhos. Pedimos a gentileza de ensiná-los a aplicar o spray ou a loção com segurança, evitando áreas sensíveis como olhos, boca, nariz e ferimentos.
 
Pedimos a gentileza de avisar nossa enfermeira se seu filho tiver o diagnóstico confirmado de dengue. Lembramos a importância de manter seu filho em casa se ele apresentar qualquer sintoma da doença, especialmente febre.

Contamos com sua parceria para manter nosso campus seguro para nossa comunidade.

Atenciosamente,

Heat Wave Recommendations

15/3/2024

0 Comments

 
We want to inform you of some of our campus procedures to help our students stay healthy...
Dear Parents,
 
Faced with the prediction of high temperatures for today and next week, we have received some guidelines from Escola Segura - our health consultancy - so that we can ensure the well-being of our students during classes. We are recommending that our teachers:

  • Take more class breaks to hydrate our students, including allowing them to refill their water bottles more times a day, especially in early childhood education, as children don't take hydration breaks on their own and can become dehydrated;
  • Try to carry out class activities in cooler environments and alternating locations, especially those that receive direct sunlight. For example, a classroom with a lot of sunlight at certain times of the day should be avoided and students directed to other spaces such as the library.
  • Do not carry out activities in the sun, in places without a roof (such as courts), and without trees or the possibility of shade from 10 am to 4 pm, when the heat is at its hottest.
  • If possible, carry out activities with water, especially in early childhood education, or simply use water sprays for students to cool off a few times a day.
  • Physical education: we recommend taking more breaks for hydration and promoting lighter physical activity, compatible with the temperature of the environment.

We also raised awareness with our teachers to look out for signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion, so that they or the nurse can provide first aid if necessary. Heat exhaustion is an excessive loss of salts (electrolytes) and fluids due to the heat, which results in a decrease in blood volume, causing many symptoms, including fainting, and can develop into heatstroke.

Signs and symptoms of heat exhaustion:

Dizziness
Dizziness or feeling of imminent fainting
Weakness
Fatigue
Headache
Blurred vision
Muscle pain
Nausea
Vomiting
Abundant sweating
Heart rate and respiratory rate may become faster.
Blood pressure may be lower.

In all cases, our nurses are available to answer any questions or provide the necessary assistance.

We thank you for your partnership and prayers.

Sincerely,

Leadership
……………

Prezados pais,
 
Diante da previsão de altas temperaturas hoje e nos próximos dias, recebemos da Escola Segura – nossa consultoria em saúde, algumas orientações para que possamos assegurar o bem estar de nossos alunos durante as aulas. Já recomendamos aos nossos professores que:

  • Realizem mais pausas para hidratação dos alunos, inclusive permitam que eles abasteçam as garrafinhas de água mais vezes ao dia, especialmente na educação infantil, pois as crianças não fazem pausas para hidratação por conta própria e podem desidratar;
  • Procurem realizar atividades em ambientes mais frescos, intercalar os locais, especialmente aqueles que recebem sol diretamente. Por exemplo, uma sala de aula com grande incidência do sol em determinado horário do dia deve ser evitada e os alunos direcionados para outros espaços como a biblioteca;
  • Não realizarem atividades sob o sol, em local sem cobertura (como quadras por exemplo) e sem árvores/possibilidade de sombra das 10h às 16h, horário de maior intensidade do calor;
  • Se possível, realizar atividades com água, especialmente na educação infantil ou simplesmente o uso de borrifadores com água para os alunos se refrescarem algumas vezes ao dia;
  • Educação Física: orientamos realizar mais pausas para hidratação e promoção de atividade física mais leve, compatível com a temperatura do ambiente.

Também conscientizamos nossos professores para que tomem cuidado e observem sinais e sintomas de exaustão, para prestar os primeiros socorros se isso for necessário. A exaustão pelo calor é uma perda excessiva de sais (eletrólitos) e líquidos devido ao calor, que resulta em uma diminuição do volume de sangue, provocando muitos sintomas, entre os quais o desmaio e pode evoluir para insolação.

Sinais e sintomas da exaustão por calor:
Tontura
Tontura ou sensação de desmaio iminente
Fraqueza
Fadiga
Dor de cabeça
Visão embaçada
Dores musculares
Náusea
Vômitos
Sudorese abundante
A frequência cardíaca e a frequência respiratória podem se tornar mais rápidas.
A pressão arterial pode ficar mais baixa.
 
Reforçamos que, em todos os casos, as nossas enfermeiras continuam à disposição para esclarecer quaisquer dúvidas ou mesmo prestar os atendimentos necessários.

Agradecemos pela parceria e orações.
 

Atenciosamente, 

Diretoria
