NZ ShakeOut

Have you ever been in an earthquake?  On October 15th at 9:15am, NWS participate in the NZ ShakeOut earthquake drill.  Many of us are from Auckland and have never experienced an earthquake but some of us like Mr Bermingham have experiences both big and small earthquakes.

Mr Bermingham shared some of his experiences with us and we've all practices the stop, drop and cover drill which may be the thing which keeps us safe during a quake.

St John's learning with Olivia

Carrying on with our Health Week experiences with Olivia.

Olivia taught us each how to put someone into the recovery position and we each had a go at performing CPR. Did you know you need to compress a person's chest thirty times when doing CPR? If you sing Row Row Row Your Boat this will help you push down on a person's heart the right number of times.

Health Week 2015

Police 2 visits New Windsor School. What a day!!!

Health week 2015: 9 am.   The classroom was abuzz.  People were finding it hard to concentrate as we took the roll and got on with our work.  We carried on working, listening and hoping and then suddenly we got the word.  Yes, the helicopter was on its way . . . flac flac flac flac ... yes we could hear it and yes we could hustle out to the backfield to take our spot.  

In the afternoon Constables Hamish and Justin came with Axel and Ice.
