Adventure At Clued Up Kids

 Last week on Friday Kereru and some of Piwakawaka, went to Clued Up Kids. Clued Up Kids are teaching us about safety drills. Safety things we did, was about trains, fire, earthquakes, safety around your house, Saint Johns (Hospital), a person from Search And Rescue, safety around quads, and horse safety. We did a rotation. Some people did each station. We spent 15 minutes on each one.

My favorite was the fire workshop, for that they blew up the inflatable house and we had to crawl through it, there was a map of the house there, I did it in somewhere around 5 seconds. For train safety we had to look at a video that showed what would happen to your car if a train ran into it, so you have to stop not the train, also it takes about 30 seconds for a train to stop. For the earthquake drill, we just did a drill, and the girl there also told us what we needed to in case of an earthquake. For the safety around your house, they set up a fake house, we had to spot problems on the fake house, like clothes over a heater, and other stuff like that. For the Saint John's one, we got a buddy that we worked with, we had a fake knife and put it on our arm and our buddies will bandage it up, we took turns. For the Search and Rescue, there was a police officer and a search and rescue person, they talked about stories about lost people, they also talked about staying where you are if you're lost and some of the gear that they use to find lost people. For one safety around quads, he told us we had to always have to wear a helmet, and to ride an adult quad bike you have to be 16+. For the Horse one, the girl there talked about safety around horses, they had a horse that was trained so it won't get scared. She said not to shout around horses because they could kick you or mush you, and if you were biking behind a horse call out then pass, we also pet the horse. Clued Up Kids was very fun.

Do you know all the safety things?
