Who needs a hospital!!

Last Thursday (18 October) saw the cubs honing their first aid skills!

Helped by two parents - Jill and Michelle - the cubs were taught the basics of first aid including the recovery position and what to do in the event of an accident. And then... they were let loose on each other!!!

 

Cubs were performing the recovery position in one corner of the room, and bandaging going on in another corner. At the other end of the room there worksheets on hazards around the house. All the cubs seemed to get the hang of the first aid quite quickly and thankfully there were enough bodies to be manhandled and bandaged so that the Cub leaders didn't need to be!

 

The evening seemed to be a success and the cubs are well on their way to yet another badge!
