My School, My Community

Over the past two weeks we have been learning about the life cycle of a plant. We have started growing our own sunflowers, snow peas, carrots and sprouts in the classroom. When it gets warmer we will transplant them into our school vegetable gardens.

Here are our grass people

For art we where inspired from this terms topic My School, My Community and created these stunning sunflower portraits.

St John Visit

Kirsty Sutherland from St John came to Taieri Beach School to teach us how to take care of injuries and allergies. 

 Asthma Attack- check to see if they have an inhaler. Get them to breathe it in for as long as they can.

 Bleeding - go to your first aid kit and get put a gauze and bandage. Wash the cut and put the gauze on underneath the bandage. If teh bleeding is really bad cal an ambulance.

 Allergies - if you see someone turning red or puffing up check to see if they have an epipen. It looks like a needle. Stab it in their thigh - it doesn't matter if they are wearing clothes, it will go straight through. But if they are wearing a wetsuit, take it off.

 Burns - if it's a burn from a fire, rinse it under cold water. If it is sunburn, put after sun on, aloe vera is the best choice. 

 Bee stings - get a flat card and slide it under the sting. Don't try this if it is a wasp sting because they take their stinger with them unlike bees.

Thank you Kirsty or teaching us what to do in emergencies.
