St John cadet. here's my story. it was about 8:45 or so, that morning I was on walking school patrol (I walk around and make sure that everyone is getting to school safely) when a little girl came up to me looking a little panicked she said "there is a girl with a wire in her leg over here" I tried to correct her "you mean in her pants?" "no!" so I rushed over as fast as I could and there I saw it a little boy with a wire straight through his leg. I then used the training that I had received as a St John cadet and helped him until the ambulance crew took over. The boy was at school the next day and actually brought the wire in with him for show and tell that day! His mum came into the school a few days later a personally thanked me for all the help I gave her son my principal, Mrs cachine also thanked me. this is my story and I hope that St John Ambulance can keep on teaching people basic first aid skills so they can help someone like I did.

Kia Ora Alexandra,
ReplyDeleteWow, what an amazing story! It sounds like your St John training really came in handy. That boy was incredibly lucky you were around and that you didn’t panic, you just did what needed to be done. I’m so proud of you and you should be very proud of yourself.
How long have you been a St John Cadet? What does that entail doing?
Can you tell me what the St John Charity does when people donate to them?
Perhaps you could add some more graphics to your post to enhance the reading experience for your readers. Maybe a picture of an ambulance or the people who work for the charity. If you need help or inspiration to do this, look at these tips for making eye catching blog posts
