Health & Safety

We were so lucky to have a planned visit from the paramedics at the end of February. It was the perfect way to learn more about taking care of others and added to some of the interactions in the 'health clinic' we had set up in the dramatic play area.
 
Students learned about calling 911, applying pressure to wounds, and wrapping bandages on to their stuffed patients.

 And one volunteer even was able to try on some paramedic gear. A paramedic jacket was donated to our dress up collection even.
 Pulling a bag of paramedic gear is very hard work. Best done with some help.

 And of course we were able to climb into he ambulance and have a good around.
 There were a lot of first aid supplies in there.
A special thanks to Mr. Walker (paramedic & parent) for arranging a special visit for us!
