Toothbrushing Programme
A simple shared routine helps tamariki care for their health and feel proud of it.
Parkside Grove’s tamariki take part in a WAVE South Canterbury initiative that supports oral health through daily toothbrushing after lunch.
Toothbrushing Programme
Brushing together after lunch makes oral health part of the ordinary rhythm of the day. Tamariki enjoy doing it alongside friends and sharing their smiles afterwards.
It is another example of how the centre supports wellbeing in practical, everyday ways that tamariki can carry with them beyond the early years.
The health and wellbeing of the child are protected and nurtured.
