Reception had a special visit from a paramedic. ‘Real Superheroes’ was their focus text in literacy and they had been discussing the different people who help them such as paramedics, teachers, postal workers, and supermarket workers. They knew that these are some of the occupations that have impacted their lives in some way.
As a class they wrote some questions for the paramedic and had a virtual tour of the inside of an ambulance. They got to see and hold some of the equipment that the paramedic uses on a daily basis. He explained how he worked with other services such as the police and fire crew , that we linked back to our focus text.
Overall, they really enjoyed the visit and it inspired some of the children to want to become paramedics when they are older.
