“Immediate First Aid can make a real difference.”

A hands on programme on First Aid was conducted by Unity College on August 27, 2022 for the students in the Pre-Primary wing. 

In the first segment, teachers posed a question ‘what do you know about First Aid?’ In layman's language they explained the meaning, aims and priorities of First Aid measures. Further, they told the students about different kinds of emergency situations like shock, bleeding, snakebite etc. and the various ways to respond to them.

It helped the students in understanding the concept on how to respond calmly and quickly in an emergency situation. They also realized the importance of being vigilant if they came across any emergency in their life. The visual teaching application in turn helped the students understand the concept better.

The last segment of the session was a DIY (Do It Yourself) wherein the students got a chance to come forward and do some hands on activities acquainted by trying it out themselves. 

DIY activities performed by the Pre-Primary wing were as follows:-
The students of Lower Nursery did Bandage over a Cut Activity where they learned how and why to paste a bandage.The students of Upper Nursery did Doctor's Kit activity which enabled the children to learn about the importance of different equipment kept in it.The students of Prep also made a Doctor's Kit containing Cotton swabs, Bandages, Cotton balls, basic medicines, etc. and were explained their importance. 

The students had an enriching and fruitful session. They vowed to put into practice what they had learnt and spread the same among their family and friends. The students were enthusiastic and inquisitive to know more on a subject like this which was interesting and educative at the same time.
