RED CROSS PEOPLESAVERS COURSES

Peoplesavers is a 4 level program developed by the Canadian Red Cross to teach safety awareness and first aid skills to elementary school-aged children. Participants follow the Peoplesavers Character for each level through a variety of everyday situations that are potentially dangerous. Participants learn to check for safety, call for help and care for an injured person in each course. The lessons are planned in an age appropriate way so skills are more complex in the higher levels.

Candidates will receive a Peoplesavers Manual . Candidates should bring paper, pen, a snack and a drink (no glass containers).This course is usually taught on the pool deck and is a dry course (no swimsuit required). Candidates who successfully complete the course will receive a certificate.
