As far as possible, each child continues his school studies and to this
end close liaison is maintained with the day schools. Encouragement is
also given in the pursuit of hobbies which stimulate interest and avoid
boredom.
Interest in the Hospital Classes has been aroused by the publication of
photographs in the national press.
On the whole, the children are eager to have lessons while in hospital
and, after returning to normal day school, many write expressing appreciation
of the help given. The parents, too, welcome the knowledge that
their children's education continues while they are in-patients.
The classes enjoy the ready co-operation of the hospital staff which is
so essential to the success of the scheme".
