This session, we are very excited to roll out a brand new quest focusing on Life Skills! We feel that those in the world who are able to tackle problems confidently and efficiently are able to do so not only because they knew how to do it, but they learned how to LEARN to do it.
The life skills will vary through a range of topics of Safety & Survival, Fixing & Creating, Communication, Transportation, Food, and Home Maintenance. The Eagles will learn basic skills such as sewing a button, mending a tear, checking the tire pressure, planning a meal, safely using tools, and so much more! But most importantly, they will learn the biggest life skill of all: how to learn & problem solve when faced with a challenge, big or small.
To learn more about First Aid & AED, we were lucky enough to bring in the team from The Expedition School! We broke into groups and had deeper discussions and hands-on learning about cuts/abrasions & first aid, how to administer the AED machine, & water safety! We learned the best ways to fully stock a first aid kit, how to properly assess a dangerous situation and what to do in case of several different emergencies. Thank you, Expedition School team!
