first aid training

 Yesterday the class went on a few local walks to do some first aid training and to have some fun of course! we were split Into groups and there was one leader In each group. The leader had to fake an accident like my friend Kaelyn, she got lost In the bush and we found her on a bench with hypothermia (this was all acting of course) her group had to treat her just like she had hypothermia. The day before we had been reading our own booklets about first aid training together but we didn't know that we were going to have to be In a fake situation, so no one was prepared. Kaelyns group was not really sure what to do but they did most of what you would of had to like cover her in blankets or a jacket you have on you, but they forgot to hug Kaelyn. So If It was a real situation kaelyn would of died. Poor Kaelyn. My group had to treat a burn, wich was pretty easy because we were lighting fires by the lake, so we just told the leader to put her hands in the lake wich would of cooled the burn. We also made some shelters. We were split Into two groups and we had to make sure all of our group could fit under the shelter. plus It had to be water proof. The way they tested If It was waterproof was evil. They made the whole group sit inder our shelter wich was just a tarpolin held up with a bunch of sticks, take the force of a full bucket of water. Poor Mackenzie was soaked with water and the whole shelter fell down on top of us. After all the training we had toasted marshmallows on the fires we lit and made smores, yum! Then we headed back to school for home time.
