Save a Life Scotland supports the training of people of all ages in \u201cbystander CPR\u201d techniques, which can make a vital difference in emergency situations. We plan to do this annually with the help of local firefighter\u2019s service personnel, our colleagues and senior pupils from Williamwood High School. This year\u2019s Save a Life Scotland Day will take place on <strong>Monday 4<sup>th<\/sup> March 2024<\/strong>. It will be led by one of our parents (a consultant in emergency medicine) and we are very grateful to them for their enthusiasm and expertise.<\/p>\n<p>Whilst we feel that these skills are important for our children to experience and develop, we also recognise that some of our children may potentially, for personal reasons, find this activity upsetting. If you therefore wish to discuss this in relation to your own child, please don\u2019t hesitate to get in touch with us so that we can help and work this out together.<\/p>\n<p>Children in <strong>Primaries 5 \u2013 7<\/strong> will use NHS dummies for the CPR training. Younger children manage better when using smaller models, and for this reason we would like to request that on the day of the event, <strong>Primaries 1 \u2013 4<\/strong> bring one soft toy into school (if possible). There are no restrictions on the type of toy but, ideally, the toy should be approximately 30 \u2013 40 cm in length.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Foodbank Donation Drive \u2013 8<sup>th<\/sup> March<\/strong><br \/>\nWe are joining other establishments in East Renfrewshire to support the East Renfrewshire Foodbank, The Trussell Trust.
