St Johns Visit!

Today a lady called Catherine from St Johns came today to teach us a bit more about what you should do in a emergency.  Our partners were the people beside us, my partner was Shae! My best friend at Kaniere School! I was SUPER happy. We also tried to remember the St Johns Alphabet, there was D for danger, A for airway, R for response, S for send for help, and B for breathing. They were actually things that you need to do, so for an example, if you saw someone laying on the ground, and there is nobody else you can see, look for D.Danger, then bend down to see if they have an A.Airway(so like if there is enough air for them to breathe), then you bend right down and either put your hands lightly down on their chests to see if they are breathing or you put your face right down to see if you can hear their breathing, you say, "hello?! can you hear me!? and if they don't talk they have no R.Response! and then If they are not you need to try find the closest phone you can get to and dile, "111". We also learnt what to bring when camping just in case something goes wrong and we had a little test. Jack T also had to sit down and hold a toy knife that had some red pen at the tip and Catherine showed us how to wrap the bandages and everything around them. Ourselves and our partners had to do it to each other. Here are some pictures,






 We had so much fun and can't wait to do it again next year! That's all! Keep safe everyone!

  1. Hi Kaya, It was a great morning and you certinally have explained the alphabet well. I did not know about this. Are there some other words that help you to remember what signs to look for if someone is distressed?
