SUMMARY:St John Ambulance (Youth Programme - Aged 5-11)
DESCRIPTION:Being a Badger\nBadgers are the youngest St John people\, aged under 11. Anyone can join a Badger Sett\, which operate across England. Badgers usually meet once a week for around 1 hour 30 minutes. \nBadgers take part in a wide range of fun activities based on essential first aid and other fascinating topics\, earning badges and certificates for each one. For every three subjects a Badger completes\, they receive an award until they achieve their Super Badger Award. \nTo give each new Badger the best possible introduction\, Welcome Badger provides a range of activities to ensure all new Badgers and their parents/carers are provided with all the essentials in the first few important weeks. \nOur Badger programme covers a wide range of subjects and activities\, from first aid to communication skills\, to healthy living and being safe. All the subjects have been written by St John people with the aim of Badgers in mind and to support children through their learning and development journey. \nBadgers can: \n\nlearn first aid\nmake new friends\nget creative with arts and crafts\nfind out how the body works and how to stay healthy\nlearn about helping their local community\ntake part in team games\ndevelop leadership and communication skills\, and much more!
