First Aid & Poster Making on 12 April 2025

By Koala Sixer Ng Kye 

This week at scouts was a great blend of practical skills and creative teamwork. After our colour party, we lined up and were split into our sixes for a first-aid session.

The main activity for this session was learning how to tie a head bandage and an arm sling using our scarves. The sixers were in charge of teaching the juniors since they all have their First Aid Badge and are proficient in the skills. They were able to pass on their knowledge to the rest of their six. Afterwards, two members from each six were chosen to demonstrate what they had learned to the leaders. It was a good challenge, but due to time constraints, not everyone was able to perform the bandages perfectly. Still, it was a great learning experience! 

The second part of the meeting focused on an activity for International Friendship Day. Each six was tasked with creating two posters featuring a different ASEAN country. This was a chance for the assistant sixers to step up and take the lead, giving them valuable leadership experience while the sixers took a step back. 

Overall, this week's meeting was full of joy and creativity. It was a really enjoyable experience that allowed us to showcase our skills in both first aid and teamwork.
