As part of Foundation Stage and Year 2's learning this term, we were delighted to welcome a nurse, paramedic, and an ambulance to the school last Friday. The visit gave children a fantastic opportunity to learn about the vital roles of healthcare professionals, ask questions, and even explore an ambulance up close. The highlight for many was hearing the sirens in action, adding to the excitement of the day! The children also had great fun practising their own bandaging techniques through imaginative doctor and nurse role play. It was an engaging and memorable experience for all!
