Brilliant presentation, informative and attention to course content Chris endeavoured to provide knowledge so that we were strengthened should we have a situation that we need to apply these skills. Far superior to the first course I attended.

Regina managed to engage each and every one of us and developed a group and yet individual relationship with us all. She has a remarkable ability to read and relate to people individually and as a group!

Carlene Newell, CDP Support Worker, Tjuwanpa Outstations Resource Centre Inc

Thank you so much for coming yesterday. It was definitely the highlight of my kids day. One staff member mentioned that she heard a buzz in the courtyard during one of the breaks and the conversation was all about first aid!

Your energetic, practical and relevant training workshops, across all levels in our school, were greatly appreciated by staff and students.

The information was light-hearted enough to make everyone feel welcome but serious enough to get all the necessary information to sink in. Bravo.

On behalf of the staff and students of Ti Tree School I would like to thank the St John Ambulance First Aid in Schools Program… We look forward to being a part of this great program in the future.

There was good humour and fun and he very patiently answered questions and repeated information as required. We feel better prepared to handle a crisis which hopefully will not occur!
