This week in Primary 2 we have been learning about keeping healthy as part of our 'Wonderful Me' topic. Today, we had a visit from Karen Lyness who is a parent in school and is a dental nurse. She taught the children about good dental hygiene and showed us how to use disclosing tablets. These colour your teeth and show up areas of plaque (blue is old and red is new) and they teach us how to brush properly.
The children had opportunities to brush an enlarged set of teeth and each child took home a dental pack which included their own toothbrush! A huge thank you to Mrs Lyness for coming in and bringing in a pack for each child.
