People Savers - First Aid

On Friday Renee from NZ Red Cross came in to Room 8 to teach us first aid. We learnt our DRS ABC and the order to do things when someone is hurt. D-Danger, R-Response, S-Send for help, A-Airway, B-Breathing, C-Circulation. We learnt how to put a bandage on and also how to put someone into the recovery position. Renee helped us understand what the people from NZ Red Cross did. They helped the people during the Christchurch earthquake. She also taught us about Poisons and the phone number if anyone swallows or breaths in any type of Poisons 0800 POISON. By Meg Rukuwai
