First Aid

This morning Kathryn from St Johns came to teach us some basic first aid.
We learnt how to identify an emergency situation and what to do. We also learnt how to manage nose bleeds, put a injured arm in a sling, dress a wound and help someone who is unconscious.
Hopefully we won't ever have to use our new skills but now we'll be better prepared if we do.
