We had a visit in school today from one of our parents, Elaine Morton, who is a Dental Nurse with the HSE. Elaine visited each classroom and spoke to us about the importance of looking after our teeth. She showed us how to brush our teeth correctly, and gave each of us a toothbrush, dental mirror and some disclosing tablets to bring home and check how well we are brushing at the minute!
Elaine also spoke about the amount of sugar that is in different foods and treats – we will be avoiding the Nutella from now on! Thank you so much Elaine for a most interesting and informative visit, and thank you also for everything you left us to help us look after our teeth.
