A bit of a career throwback.

While waiting for a spot on Ambulance, I spent 12 months working as an Emergency Response Officer at Cadia Valley Operations. During that time, I trained in vertical rescue, confined space rescue, completed (and passed!) a 7-day intensive underground rescue course, and even spent a day as a snake catcher.

That year shaped my approach to emergency response, and it taught me to importance of adaptability, teamwork, and being prepared for the unexpected.

We loved spending time in Lithgow with The Little Learning Tree team, delivering First Aid in Education & Care and CPR refresher training.

It is always fantastic to work with childcare teams who genuinely care about safety. Even smaller businesses and community groups have such a big impact, and making sure their teams are confident and prepared is something we’re really passionate about.

Thank you to the team for getting involved, asking great questions and taking safety seriously. It was a pleasure working with you.

Our Goal: To make merch people actually use.

Teaming up with Country Trucker Caps we made trucker caps that are practical, comfortable and built to last.

Couldn't resist jumping on the “me doing my job” trend.

This is me, in my element.

Training teams, building confidence, and making sure people are ready when it matters most.

We recently had the chance to be back training the team at Vertex Minerals Ltd, delivering their Provide First Aid & Provide CPR training.

Being based out at Hill End means help isn’t just around the corner, which makes it even more important that staff feel confident managing an emergency until additional support arrives.

The focus was on solid first aid fundamentals and CPR, practical, hands-on skills that really matter in remote environments like this.

We also have further training planned with the team in Advanced Resuscitation, Oxygen Therapy and Pain Management, which is always great to see organisations continuing to build capability beyond the basics.

Thanks to the Vertex crew for relying on us for their training, and for their ongoing commitment to safety.

Last year, we were honoured to run a training session for St Philomena’s in Bathurst, a school very close to our hearts, as this is where our own children attend.

It’s incredibly reassuring to see the staff who are responsible for our children’s safety take their training so seriously.

Being able to contribute to their preparedness and confidence in handling emergencies was a privilege, and it’s wonderful to see such dedication to keeping students safe.

We recently had the pleasure of running a training session for Holy Family in Bathurst, with 50 staff members participating, including a team member with 17 years of service and another with 30 years. We were so honoured to hear from each that it was the best first aid training they've ever done.

The Principal also shared that while the school runs training every year, this was their first year training under us and, under our guidance, this was the first session where they truly learned something new and everyone walked away with practical takeaways.

We had many great, thought-provoking conversations during the course, and one of the best was our exploration of how people respond in emergencies.

One key discussion centered on previous practices where staff tried to shield students if an ambulance needed to attend the school. We reinforced the importance of being open and honest with students, while always maintaining confidentiality and dignity for the person involved.

It was a fantastic day, and it’s always rewarding to see staff leave feeling confident and prepared to handle emergencies effectively.

Provide First Aid and CPR training looked a little different with OS Trees, and we loved it.

Their shed became our training space, giving the team the chance to learn in an environment that reflects where they actually work.

Real environments, real skills, real confidence are what matters most.

Late last year, we spent the morning doing paediatric first aid with a small group of parents and their babies, and it was one of those sessions that reminds us why we do this work.

We covered everything from the practical stuff like rashes, medications, choking and cardiac arrest, to the harder conversations around parental anxiety and post-natal mental health.

It was open, honest and incredibly real.

We spend a lot of time working with big sites and big organisations, running large-scale training and simulations, but sessions like this are just as important to us.

Helping parents feel a little more prepared, a little more confident, and a little less alone matters just as much.

A huge thank you to Endure Strength Orange for welcoming us into their space, and to the parents who showed up, asked great questions and trusted us with those conversations.

Big or small, it’s always about people feeling ready when it counts.
