Welcome to our nursery provision here at Woodnewton a learning community. We are fortunate to have an amazing facility incorporated within our main school building, so not only do the children who attend belong to our nursery, they belong to our Woodnewton family as a whole.

Recently, in Foundation Stage One, we had a visit from Sarah and Faith, a Dental Hygienist and Dental Nurse from Ise Lodge Dental Clinic (Kettering). They came to talk to us about how we can look after our teeth. They talked about how important it is to look after our teeth and they were really pleased to hear that we all brush our teeth twice a day. Sarah recommended that we brush our teeth for two minutes each time. She brought a giant sand timer with her to demonstrate just how long two minutes is – some of us thought it felt like a long time!  

We had a chance to practise our brushing skills on some cuddly toys, making sure that we brushed using circular movements! 

We had a go at making a ‘healthy tooth’ craft and also dressing up as a dentist and dental nurse! 

A huge thank you to Sarah and Faith and to Ise Lodge Dental Clinic, for their fun and educational talk, plus the free toothbrush/toothpaste samples, information leaflets and tooth brushing challenge!
