We are incredibly grateful to our fantastic PTA for organising and funding Mini First Aid sessions for our Year 3 and Year 6 pupils during the Autumn Term. These sessions have been truly invaluable in helping our children understand what to do in an emergency and where to seek help and support.
It was a real joy to join the Year 6 session and witness the thoughtful questions posed to the trainer, as well as the personal reflections and experiences shared by the children during the demonstration activities. Their engagement and curiosity were inspiring, and it’s clear that these sessions have made a meaningful impact.
A special thank you to Liz Watt from Mini First Aid Exeter and South Devon for delivering such engaging and informative sessions. You can find out more about Liz and her work here:

Breasts don’t stop CPR.
Hesitation does.

Women are less likely to receive bystander CPR - not because it’s different, but because people feel unsure.

CPR on women is life-saving, not inappropriate.

Our courses talk about CPR on women and men, so you can act with confidence.
