Later on in history we will be looking at medicine through the ages. Today we learnt some basic first aid that we could use to help someone now. If someone’s arm was hurt we could use this triangular bandage to support it so that it wouldn’t get any worse.

Then we went out to try different Olympic sports ourselves. We definitely have some budding long jumpers ourselves.
