A VISIT FROM ST JOHNS AMBULANCE
Today our children were fortunate enough to have an educator from St Johns Ambulance, with her friend Ambie the Ambulance, join us at kindergarten. The children learnt about different emergency services, their roles, the special clothing worn by ambulance crew, what it looks like inside an ambulance, the equipment children may interact with in an emergency and what we need to do in an emergency.
The children got the opportunity to see some real oxygen equipment, try on some ambulance clothing, support an injury and practice putting on bandages. It was a fun morning for everyone and we all learnt so much - thank you St John's Ambulance!
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
