NEWS FROM 2G
Last Friday, all classes participated in a First Aid Incursion. In year 2 the children learnt the DRS,
Danger, Respond, Send acronym. They discussed what to do if they found some one on the lying on
the floor.
We learnt:
D = Danger. Always check for danger and ensure the area is safe for yourself, bystanders and the
patient. For Yr 2, this was things like, spilt water, broken glass, knives, smoke, gas etc.
R= Response Check for a response: ask the person, Hello, can you hear me? Clap your hands to
see if you get a response. If no response, then squeeze their shoulders
S= Send for help. Call Triple Zero (000) for an ambulance or ask a bystander to make the call.
At the end of the session, students played a game of Bingo revising the different concepts they had
learnt. The students enjoyed the incursion and are now ready for any emergency!
