As part of our extended schools project, we are offering parents the opportunity to participate in an accredited Public First Aid training course, which will be run over two consecutive evening sessions, 7:00-9:00 pm, April 2018. We plan to offer the course to parents across all 5 schools in our cluster-Strabane Academy, St Catherine’s PS, St Mary’s Cloughcor , Strabane PS and Bready Jubilee PS. As we see this as a key community venture, we are delivering the primary school workshops in neighbouring schools. Venues used will be:
Cohort 1 - 2 x nights at St Catherine’s & Strabane PS (1 night x2 hours at each school) on Tuesday 10th (St Catherine’s PS) & Wednesday 11th April (Strabane PS)
Cohort 2- 2 x nights at Strabane Academy on Tuesday 17th & Wednesday 18th April
Cohort 3- 2 x nights at St Mary’s PS & Bready Jubilee PS (1night x 2 hours at each school) on Tuesday 24th April (St Mary’s Cloghcor) & Wednesday 25th April (Bready Jubilee PS)
Practical elements of the programme will include: those who are prone to or have suffered a stroke or heart attack; CPR • working with those who suffer with diabetes, asthma, anaphylaxis or epilepsy • dealing with head injuries/ concussions • dealing with bleeding • dealing with choking • scenarios at home (dealing with hazards) • This list is not restricted and could be changed to meet the needs of the participating group. If you, as a parent/ carer, would be interested in participating in such a programme, please indicate below your preferred location. If demand is greater than spaces available for the programme, we will endeavour to run this course again in the future. Please return to school by Monday 5th March so that numbers can be confirmed.
