It was a pleasure to welcome Simon, from Flat Stan First Aid, to W.P.S. Throughout the day, he delivered the Essential Life Skills course to all of our Reception – Form 6 pupils, and it was fantastic to see the children getting involved and asking lots of questions.
During the interactive workshops, children were taught valuable skills about how to recognise a variety of first aid situations, how to deal with them and how to summon help.
Some of the key skills included: how to get help; how to check if someone is breathing; how to deliver chest compressions; how to help someone who is choking or bleeding and how to help someone who has suffered a burn.
Every child received the Flat Stan First Aid book, certificate and a Flat Stan sticker which they were able to take home and share with their parents.
A huge thank you to the Parents’ Committee for funding this brilliant opportunity.
