Toilet Tactics has been designed for use in Australian primary schools. The kit has been designed to involve the whole school community.
Why use Toilet Tactics?
This program is seeking to motivate children to adopt healthy bladder and bowel habits by empowering them through education and knowledge. It is built on the premise that many lifelong attitudes, beliefs and behaviours begin in childhood and that instilling these values at a young age may help avoid issues later in life.
Research shows that bladder and bowel problems can have a negative impact on a child’s self-esteem and quality of life. A child’s perception of their school toilets and access to them can impact on a child’s health and wellbeing, which can also impact on a child’s ability to learn.
