We are honoured and proud to announce that our Dates Fundraiser was very success and would like to thank everyone who has so wholeheartedly donated by purchasing the 5 kg boxes of Tunisian dates. We sold a total of 190 boxes to parents and the wider school community. A very generous sister contributed the remaining balance so we could go ahead with the purchase.
Thanks to the fundraiser and YOUR donations, we were able to purchase a brand new child and adult defibrillator machine, or "defib" in short. The defib has already been received by the College and is ready for use.
Defibrillation is a procedure used to treat life threatening conditions that affect the rhythm of the heart such as cardiac arrhythmia, ventricular fibrillation and pulseless ventricular tachycardia.
The procedure involves the delivery of an electric shock to the heart which causes depolarisation of the heart muscles and re-establishes normal conduction of the heart人妖天堂app electrical impulse. The machine used to deliver this therapeutic shock to the heart is called a defibrillator.
