This Tuesday, the school had a visit from the Mountain Rescue Team. Dave Macpheat and Dave Tyson who are both Mountain Rescue Volunteers talked about what they do when they are working. They came into our playground with a mountain rescue vehicle and they had three activities for each class to do. The first activity was to learn about how to carry the stretcher, the second activity was to make up word to tell the other group through the radio to see if they could figure it out. This is the phonetic alphabet! The third activity was to look though all of the equipment in the Mountain Rescue workers bags!
It was great fun! My favourite part of the day was getting carried on the stretcher!!!
