Shaanthi ICSE School, Periyakottai, organised a Dental Health Camp in association with the Indian Dental Association to nurture healthy oral care habits among young learners. The programme featured an educational session by dental professionals, free dental screenings for 64 Grade 4 students, personalised guidance on oral hygiene, and the distribution of free toothpaste.
Such initiatives are essential in schools because childhood is the ideal time to develop habits that last a lifetime. By helping children understand the importance of regular dental check-ups, proper brushing techniques and preventive care, the camp transformed health awareness into meaningful learning. It reaffirmed Shaanthi’s commitment to nurturing not only academic excellence but also the health and well-being of every child.
