CLOSER Discovery

Please position the teenager upright against a flat wall or a door. Encourage him/her to stretch to full height, keeping heels on the floor. Heels and buttocks should be flush against wall or door. Place a hardboard/book on the teenager's head. Mark the position of the lower edge with a pencil and then measure the height from the ground with a wood or steel measuring rod or steel tape measure. Alternatively, use measuring device on the back of a weighing machine and observe precautions as above. NB. Remove shoes before height is measured.
