A very special visitor

18th June 2021A Stelling

Reception had another special visitor today. It was our School Nurse! She told us all about the job she does and even brought in some of the equipment she uses.  We also talked about how to keep our bodies strong and healthy. We met Terry the tooth and talked about why it is important to keep our teeth clean. The children answered and asked some fantastic questions.
