CPR 1: Learning the wires! Print E-mail

Mr den Otter was dead! He had to be revived in the meeting room by a teacher preforming CPR.

I’m just kidding; we had a great time learning all the tricks of the trade for CPR (1). When the whole class was thoroughly informed about what to do and how to act around clinically dead people we started testing each other, one of us acted dead while the other went through the CPR tactics. Before we did the actions of CPR we had to see if they were unconscious or not. Some of the things we did was ask them to open their eyes and ‘squeeze my hand’.

Then we got to practice on the dummy! We had trained all of 20 mins for this and now it was time to revive him. We tried all the responses and practised CPR on his chest and tilting the head back for the breathings. My partner Montana was GREAT at CPR and timed the chest resuscitations perfectly! Over all a great time, awesome and fun learning time at CPR class!

School For Student Leadership

School for Student Leadership is a Victorian Department of Education and Training (DET) initiative offering a unique residential education experience for year nine students. The curriculum focuses on personal development and team learning projects sourced from students' home regions. There are four campuses in iconic locations across Victoria. The Alpine School Campus is located at Dinner Plain in the Victorian Alps. Snowy River Campus is near the mouth of the Snowy River at Marlo in east Gippsland. The third site is adjacent to Mount Noorat near Camperdown in Victoria’s Western District, and is called Gnurad-Gundidj. After consultation with the local aboriginal community, this name represents both the indigenous name of the local area and an interpretation of the statement "belonging to this place". Our fourth and newest campus, currently known as the Don Valley Campus is located at Don Valley, Yarra Ranges.

Our school community acknowledges the Gunaikurnai and Monero-Ngarigo people as the traditional custodians of the land upon which our school campus is built. We pay our respects to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, their Elders past and present, and especially whose children attend our school.
