Healthy teeth are important for general health and speech development. Most dental problems can be prevented. The NSW Oral Health Promotion Network has developed resources specifally for school-aged children. You can download them on the NSW Health website or order hard copies of posters and brochures for your school, free of charge.
The Health Smart Deadly Art project at the Greater Southern Area Health Service utilised visual art to develop Aboriginal culturally appropriate education resources to promote dental health. Students from Narooma Public School created visual art products representing the key oral health messages: Eat Well, Drink Well, Clean Well, Play Well, Stay Well. The posters are available for download from the NSW Health website, or you can order copies for your school, free of charge.
Suitable for primary school aged children, “The Healthy Tribe – I can help my body stay well” storybook aims to educate children in regard to their dental and general health. The story focuses on the oral health messages – eat well, drink well, clean well and play well. This little book is Marley’s journey as he gains the knowledge to live a happy and healthy life told through the stories of the Biripi and Worimi people so Aboriginal and non-Aboriginal people alike can learn the knowledge of improving health in a culturally appropriate way. You can download the book, or order copies for your school, free of charge.
