2016 First Aid Refresher and Training Course
CYC Waihola is running a one-day Practical First-Aid Course through the Red Cross. We have been able to gain some very good training rates so are able to offer the following courses at well below the usual cost:
- Practical First Aid Full Course (Unit Standards 6401 and 6402) – 4 hours (9am – 1pm) – $140 each
- Practical First Aid Refresher (Unit Standards 6401 and 6402) – 4 hours (9am – 1pm) – $110 each
This course is the equivalent of Workplace First Aid and is valid for two years.
To make it cheaper we are making it a shared lunch so bring something to share – still talk to us if this is too much and we might be able to sweeten the deal for you if you are a poor lonely student.
At the end of the day you have a current First Aid Certificate that is valid for 2 years. You will come away with NZQA Unit Standards 6401 and 6402

For over fifteen years, he has been involved in local church ministry and in denominational youth work. He has enjoyed being a local church youth pastor and a parish minister. Brian loves being married to Anne, has two adult sons, one dog and one cat. He also enjoys reading and riding motorbikes.

Relational Ministry
“Being involved in youth ministry is much more than just one night a week. It means getting involved in the lives of teenagers and

It is a winter tramp so expect the following from the weekend:
– easy going track
– minus 0 degrees temperatures and maybe snow
– warm fellowship and good food
Those interested will need to contact Tim at the CYC office to talk about the tramp.
Some limited transport may be available from Waihola to the tramp and home again.
Your gear will need to include:
– Good boots with ankle support
– Very warm clothing (including two sets of thermals)(last time we did this tramp there was a -5 degree night in the hut)
– Very warm sleeping bag (again it is very cold)
– Wet weather gear (last time it snowed)
