Children learnt all about CPR, the recovery position, and how to act in a medical emergency.

They also took part in workshops led by LIVES, which taught children important life skills.

Former pupil at the school Marie Roffey, a first responder for Cranwell and Leasingham, led the day.

A spokesman from the school said: “This is part of a well-being week where the children will do workshops with the NSPCC, cook, look at personal safety, and enjoy sports.”
