First Aid Training for Year 10 and VET Community Service Students

Last Wednesday, our Year 10 students and those undertaking the VET Community Service course took part in a full-day First Aid training program. The session combined theory with plenty of hands-on practice, giving students the chance to develop practical, lifesaving skills that can make a real difference in emergencies.

Students learned how to recognise and respond to common medical situations, from cuts and burns to asthma and anaphylaxis. They also gained confidence in performing CPR, using a defibrillator, and applying the DRSABCD action plan in simulated scenarios.

By the end of the day, students left not only with valuable First Aid knowledge but also with a sense of responsibility and readiness to support others in their community. This training is an important step in equipping them with skills for both their studies and their everyday lives.
