Chris and Mark (educational public health officers) would like to thank you for your continued support and contributions. Your actions throughout the pandemic and the role you played in mitigating risk within your settings led to the highest attendance rates post-covid in the country, and your support in the immunisation programmes in schools has protected the school communities and been the highest rating in the country too.
