The National Environment Agency (NEA) and Temasek Foundation are providing mosquito repellents to all students in preschools, primary, and secondary
schools in Singapore to urge students, parents, and caregivers to take urgent collective action in the fight against dengue.
A 30ml bottle of DEET-based mosquito repellent and an accompanying educational pamphlet will be made available in August to students in preschools (under the Ministry of Education (MOE) and those managed by the Early Childhood Development Agency (ECDA)), government-funded Early Intervention centres, primary and secondary schools, as well as students enrolled in programmes of equivalent levels in other educational institutions which have opted to receive the repellents. ComCare beneficiaries can collect the mosquito repellents from their nearest Social Service Office as well.
