OF THE
SCHOOL MEDICAL OFFICER
FOR THE
Year ended 31st December, 1928.
To the Members of the Education Committee
of the Borough of Wimbledon.
Mr. Chairman, Ladies and Gentlemen,
I have the honour to submit the Annual Report on the
Medical Inspection and treatment of School children in the
Wimbledon area for the year ending 31st December, 1928.
Dr. Gilmour, your late School Medical Officer, died on the
13th May, 1928, and from that date until the end of the year,
the work of the School Medical Department was carried on by
Dr. E. M. D. Craig, the Assistant School Medical Officer. As
I did not commence my duties as your School Medical Officer
until February 4th, 1929, the Report has been issued in an
abbreviated form and is chiefly of a statistical character.

(a) Staff.— Miss J. E. D. Elder, School Nurse-Health Visitor,
resigned in April, 1928, and was replaced by a temporary
nurse, Miss Hulse, until November, when Miss K. Kenion was
appointed.
