School hygiene and infection control services

Schools that flourish are healthy, wealthy and wise. The Albany Healthy Schools Programme has been created to help keep you in the pink – physically and financially. We provide health, financial and environmental benefits through affordable hygiene services, proven infection control monitoring and curriculum-linked hygiene education.

See what the expert says“School hygiene has never been more important with organisms such as E.coli, norovirus and flu all posing a serious threat to your school’s health every day."

"The presence of bacteria can indicate poor hygiene in schools and can also bring with it problems with viruses.

Without appropriate hygiene management and infection control solutions, viruses can easily take hold and spread throughout your school, creating a chain reaction due to the confined environment and high physical contact rate. How rapidly these infections can spread in schools has been demonstrated with the outbreaks of swine flu and, more recently, the winter vomiting virus."
