The Crowe Central School.
During the year 1933, two medical inspections were carried
out at The Grove Central School and a total of 191 routine examinations
were made.

As a result of the examinations in 1932, 36 children were
found to need treatment, while in 1933 the lowered figure of 25
is shown. As has been observed previously, faulty vision claimed
the major portion of defects requiring treatment.
It is noteworthy that the personal hygiene of the children was
found to be exceedingly good.
Mr. Madden's kindly interest in and co-operation with, the
Medical Service, has done much to produce this highly satisfactory
standard of hygiene and health in the scholars during 1933, and
I should like to thank him.
