保健師講話

　去る10月7日（木）三学年の総合的な探究の時間に、長万部町保健福祉課の澤口夏澄様をはじめ、３名の保健師さんをお迎えし、心とからだの健康学習を実施しました。

　事前学習で妊婦さんの大変さや、赤ちゃんの世話をすることの難しさを体験してから聴くお話は、とてもためになり、現在パパでもある男性保健師の深川光彦様の沐浴デモンストレーションは、特に男子生徒がくぎ付けになり、『赤ちゃん人形でも大変そうなのに、実際に動いたり泣いたりする赤ちゃんはもっと大変だと思うので沢山練習してから子どもを作りたい』などの感想も寄せられました。

　また、保健師さんが町民みんなのために様々な役割を担ってくれていることを知り、自分たちもいざという時には、相談したり頼ったりすることができるという安心感も生まれたようです。

[Lecture on Taking Care of Baby]

On October 7th, Ms. Sawada and two other health nurses from Health Welfare Department in Oshamambe Town Hall, came to our school, and gave a lesson to the third year students on mental and physical health.
　Since the third year had already learned about how hard it is to take care of babies, stories told in the lesson appeared even more meaningful to them. A demonstration of giving a bath to a baby was given by Mr. Fukagawa, a health nurse who has a baby, and it attracted great attention from the students, in particular the boys. One of the students said that it seemed difficult to give a bath to a baby, so that real babies would be even harder to do so as they would move and cry – presumably, a lot. And the student also added “I want to have a baby after I have practiced a lot for it.”
