St John's Visit

St John's Visit

On Tuesday this week, the Year 10 students participated in a whole-day program called Party Ready, run by St. John’s. Presenter Danielle ran the sessions which will help equip them with the tools and knowledge to help their mates if they are injured, unwell or in distress.

They learned to apply skills from CPR to psychological first aid and substance overdose as well as making safe choices around drugs and driving. The students were provided with vital information to be confident in de-escalation of immediate situation and to help them direct the person to an appropriate intervention. Students had a go at performing CPR on the mannequins and learned how to put an unconscious person in the recovery position. They also learned the effects of alcohol on their vision by trying to walk on the line wearing beer goggles.
