Year 1 developed skills in basic first aid. We started by learning about the British Red Cross which is an organisation that responds to disasters, conflicts and personal emergency. We discussed what first aid is and agreed that we would not feel confident to give first aid to someone who needs help. In pairs, we followed the steps to help someone in different emergencies such as an asthma attack, choking, bleeding, burns, someone who is unresponsive and breathing/not breathing and head injuries. Year 1 listened very closely to the instructions and also practiced calling 999. They all felt more confident to know how to help someone or themselves if these emergencies occurred.
