Yesterday the 4th of December, we had a guest speaker come to our school to talk to Grades 1/2 PW, KN and MB. Our visitor was named Di who is a Dental Nurse. She spoke to us about how to keep our teeth clean and healthy as well as how to brush properly. Di also told us about how much sugar was in different drinks. We compared soft-drinks, juices and different types of milk. We found out that Coke had 17 teaspoons of sugar, Orange Juice had around 14 teaspoons and Chocolate milk had 14.5 teaspoons. We found out that Fanta has the most sugar in it, with it containing 19 teaspoons of sugar per drink. At the end we all were given show bags that had things in it to help us take care of our teeth. We really enjoyed having Di come and speak to us and we all learnt lots of new things!!!!!

How often do you brush your teeth?

What is your favourite type of toothpaste?
