First aid talk

Was invited by Yee Chin, ex-classmate, to give a first-aid talk to her St John Ambulance group of 9-12 year olds.

Was at a loss what to say or do with them. Firstly I don't think I know much about first aid. And I was required to speak in Chinese. And I don't know how to talk to kids!

My first impression walking into school was how small the kids were. Not just young but small. This was rather surprising as I was one of the shortest in class during my primary and secondary school years.

Yee Chin helped me along with translations of difficult terms, which was just about every third word and in maintaining the class' attention.

And they gave me a gift at the end. Huge one. Bit embarassing for just dressing up and pretending I knew something.
