Illam children in good health!
Apart from the usual ills that generally circulate; coughs, fevers and stomach aches, the children at the Illam are all in good health and there are no major issues to report. At the end of July they were all given a general medical check up, with their blood count, BMI and blood pressure taken, as well as eye and dental tests. Personal hygiene, exercise and healthy eating continue to be a priority at the Illam.
