Handwashing is one of the most important things you can do to stay healthy, especially for students, who spend a lot of time in close contact with others. Germs can easily spread on surfaces and from person to person, but washing your hands regularly can help to prevent the spread of disease.
On Global Handwashing Day, Uguis Integrated School participated by teaching students the proper handwashing techniques. Students learned how to lather their hands with soap for at least 20 seconds, scrub all surfaces of their hands, and rinse thoroughly with water. They also learned when it is important to wash their hands, such as before eating, after using the toilet, and after blowing their nose.
Handwashing is a simple but effective way to stay healthy and prevent the spread of disease. By teaching students about the importance of handwashing and providing them with easy access to soap and water, Uguis Integrated School is helping to create a healthier school community.
