St John Visit

Room 11 had an educational visit from St John

The instructor talked to us about the three different types of emergency vehicles. 

He asked us to look at a picture and find all the hidden dangers.

We talked about keeping ourselves safe if we see an emergency and want to help.



We practiced  how to ring 111 to call for help in an emergency and to give all  the correct information to the operator. 

Next we learnt how to bandage an injured arm by pressing, plugging,wrapping and holding it up. 

 .

Lastly we practiced bandaging each other.

Thank-you for a wonderful visit!!
