Handwashing with Rose
Last week we had Rose our Public Health Nurse come to talk to us about handwashing. We learned when we should wash our hands, and how to wash our hands.
Handwashing is so important as it helps to stop the spread of nasty germs that make us sick.
Your child or older sibling in your family was given a magnet with handwashing information on it. See if your child can remember when they should be washing their hands, or using hand sanitiser.
