The knowledge and skills gained from the program will develop kids’ First Aid awareness, and contribute to building a more resilient community. Bringing to life the importance of First Aid and what to do in an emergency (including calling 000 and performing CPR), the interactive games, Storytime and Action Plan scenarios make the program more enjoyable than ever before. The learning is age-appropriate, with kids divided into three age groups, & taught a selected learning module (see full details below).

Kids are encouraged to wear clothing suitable for floor work (e.g. pants or shorts), & should bring a pen / pencil & paper.

These sessions are provided for free by St John. A $5 booking fee per child per session covers venue hire, with any surplus funds donated to St John Ambulance. If a venue is hired for free, all attending families will be reimbursed in full.

This event is aimed at primary-aged children, however junior secondary-aged kids who have rudimentary first aid skills and knowledge are welcome to join as well.

Please note: only children participating in a session may be in the room during each session. Non-participating siblings (either booked in a different session, or not participating at all) cannot be in the room, & must be supervised by an adult they know & trust. Families can either bring two adults, or can team up with a friend coming to supervise all kids. A separate room will be available for kids to hang out in, & families are encouraged to bring books, board games or craft activities.
