This week, children in Years 5 and 6 learned how to perfom CPR and how to use a defibrillator. Mrs Dale and Miss Hempstead were trained by Jon at Essex & Herts Air Ambulance (EHAAT). EHAAT have launched a free "CPR Smart" programme to train teachers and students in schools across Essex and Hertfordshire. The evidence-based programme aims to improve cardiac arrest survival rates by equipping the next generation with life-saving CPR and defibrillator skills. The children were all really engaged and developed greater confidence in knowing what they could do to help in an emergency situation. Well done to you all!

We were really pleased to invite Alim Kamara, a British-Sierra Leonean rapper and storyteller, into Baynards for the morning recently. He spent the morning with the children where he combined storytelling, rap, and motivational elements to teach children about self-esteem, identity, and history. The children were all very engaged and enthusiastic! Thanks you Alim!
