Essex and Herts Air Ambulance
The Essex and Herts Air Ambulance kindly came in to teach Birchwood High School students basic lifesaving skills techniques. They ran three, one hour sessions for Year 8, Year 12 and Year 13. The Air ambulance went through different scenario’s on how to spot when someone is in trouble and would then require help. As part of the sessions they taught students how to use basic CPR and for the older students they included training on how to use a defibrillator. They talked about the sightings of the defibrillators across Bishop’s Stortford including the one which is based in our sports hall at Birchwood.
The Essex and Herts Air Ambulance have been Birchwood’s local charity of the year, and they were invited to the school as part of Feel Good Week, during which everyone helps to raise funds for all of our charities including Sparkle Malawi and National Firefighters Charity.
Spring Concert
The music department held their annual Spring Concert on the 28 March. The talent on show was phenomenal. The Orchestra and the Vocalise choir sounded amazing, there were exceptional performances from the solo artists, duets and instrumental duets. Many thanks to Mr Grogan and Mr Stock for all your hard work and dedication.
