CPR !

Cubs, what is DR ABC?

Yes, that's right!

It's Danger. Respond. Airway. Breathing. Circulation.

Last Saturday, our cubs had an interesting lesson on how to perform CPR (short for Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation). They were taught how to check if a person was still breathing and having a pulse, and the steps to perform CPR.

All the cubs "Eee !" and "Ahhh" when told they had to give mouth-to-mouth breathing, and giggled about bad breath or kissing the opposite sex.

Jokes aside, they were all serious when it came to practising the correct way to perform chest compression :

Looks like we are in the safe company of our cubs, should we faint one day and need CPR!

Visit to Health Promotion Board

On 6th March, 34 of our cubs made their way to the Health Promotion Board, to earn their Cub Scout Junior Health Trooper Badge. Taking the MRT together was part of the exciting activities for the day ahead.

The cubs were given an Health Trooper Hunt to be completed within 2o minutes. They excitedly raced around the Health Zone looking for clues and answers, and had loads of fun trying their hands on the various exhibits.

The cubs also learnt many tips on personal hygiene, nutrition and how to engage in physical activities to be fit and healthy, before taking the test for the Junior Health Trooper Badge.

Learning to wash our hands the right way

Our young cubs taking the test seriously

Needless to say, All our cubs passed the test and will be getting their well-deserved badge in a couple of weeks time.

Congratulations!
