This week, our pupils were visited by our school nurse, Sharlene Forbes. Nurse Forbes spent time discussing the importance of personal hygiene and how having good personal hygiene can boost self-esteem and confidence. Nurse Forbes went on to discuss the difference between anti-perspirant and body spray, along with the importance of brushing our teeth twice a day, even discussing what brand of toothbrush dentists recommend. Nurse Forbes concluded by talking through the changes that our Year 5 and 6 may be noticing with their bodies; she was blown away by the maturity, knowledge and confidence to ask questions regarding these subjects, clearly evidencing the empowerment our school’s PSHE and RSE curriculums has had on our pupils.
Thanks again to Nurse Forbes for coming in and spending time with our pupils, we really appreciated it!
