Careers

I can describe some of the kinds of work that people do and I am finding out about the wider world of work.  HWB 1-20a

A big thank you to all our visitors that have come to P3 to tell everyone about their career.

We have been looking at the skills and qualities required for different jobs.

Some children have been impersonating a police officer over the last few weeks as they enjoyed dressing up in Mrs Sneddon’s police uniform.

Marci’s dad brought along his camera and showed everyone how to make a film.

Bonnie’s dad told us all about being a Forester. It sounded like a fabulous job and the children asked lots of interesting questions.

Life Savers in P2! HEARTSTART

We have been learning what to do

in emergency situations,

who to ask for help

and what we can do to save lives.

 

SDC11903Finlay  and Katie from P5 demonstrated what to say and do if someone is unconscious. SDC11906Emma and Niamh from P5 showed us how to put someone in the recovery position.
SDC11910Call 999 for an emergency. SDC11908Sarah and Kenzie worked in a pair to practise putting a person into the recovery position.
SDC11909Lucy checked for danger before approaching Oliver to offer her help. SDC11907Sarah shouted for help. She gently shaked the casualty to check if he was conscious. Next she checked for signs of normal breathing.
SDC11904Finlay gave very clear instructions on the steps to follow.

SDC11905
P5 and P2 worked together to share learning and possibly save a life one day. A most important lesson!
