St. Christopher’s School staff members are using their initiative, skills and machinery to support Bahrain medical staff on the frontline in the fight against the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the school said on social media.
Senior School head Nick Wilson, assistant head Bryon Pearce and Design and Technology (DT) head Kim Chadwick have been using the school’s four 3D printers to create face-visors to help protect Bahrain’s medical workers caring for COVID-19 patients.
DT teachers John Doherty, Aneil Peswani, Martin Plunkett, assistant Head David Williams and technician Jibi Varghese have also been working in shifts to get the masks produced.
The first batch was delivered to Bahrain Defence Force (BDF) Hospital and Awali Cardiac Centre yesterday and have been put to use immediately by the medical teams, who have been very impressed with the quality.
The school will continue to make and supply visors to medical teams in Bahrain for the foreseeable future. School staff members expressed their sincere thanks to the medical professionals in Bahrain in their efforts combating COVID-19.
