First Aid Workshop

First Aid is part of Year 5 PSHE Curriculum, and to support the theory learning in class we had a practical workshop too.

The trainer introduced us to DR ABC (Danger, Response, Airway, Breathing and Circulation) as a way to remember what to do if we come across an accident.  They also told the class what information to give to the Emergency Services on 999 or 112.

We covered a lot of information in the hour workshop and the photos below show us learning how to put someone in the recovery position.

We also learnt how to give CPR – using dummies to practice giving the chest compression which are part of CPR.
