This week in Year 6, the children were lucky enough to take part in a First Aid course. They learnt about the essential items to keep in a First Aid kit and what to do if there was an emergency. They even learnt how to resuscitate someone and put an injured person into the recovery position. The children listened carefully and had some interesting questions.
Later in the week, the children started to think about how exercise affects the circulatory system. They have found out how to take their own pulse and started to ask scientific questions about heart rate. We will continue these investigations next week in a combined science/PE lesson.
