Exhibition
An exhibition "Education To-Day" was held in the Technical
College during the summer as part of Croydon's Millenary Year
Celebrations and it was a great pleasure to arrange a lively
stand showing the "School Health Service".
Miscellaneous
Talks, films and filmstrips were also given during the year
to Selhurst Grammar School, Wallington County School for Girls,
Castle Hill Junior School, Parent Teachers Associations and participation
on a panel at the Junior Teacher's Club was a most
enjoyable experience.
There does appear to be a greater appreciation of the
benefits of health education and the opportunities for extending
the service are steadily increasing.
