Term 1, Week 5. Topic: Total Defence/Cross Country.

Since I was Secondary One, Cross Country has been the same to me, yet different to others. Reason being, I am doing first aid duty. First aid duty sounds fun, but it requires skills and knowledge that you have learned from the Standard First Aid Course. When a casualty needs immediate help from first aiders, skills and knowledge are therefore applied from what we have learned. During the period when we are doing our duty, we are required to stand at attention, which shows respect to our own uniform group and shows our sense of discipline. It may be a pity for not being able to take part in the Cross Country in school every year, but it is a joy being a first aider.
