Whetu Survivor Bush Task!

 Welcome to Week 2 of Whetu Survivor, we got to do Bush Survivor with Mrs Kennedy! It was really challenging finding out what S.T.O.P means but I figured it out, and it says what it means in the description below.


Shelter

  •  Build on dry ground or your shelter will sink into the runny mud.
  • Build up on high ground so if it floods you will not get drenched in water.
  •  Don’t build on a sloped hill or you may fall while your sleeping. 


Finding Water

  • Dig anywhere that is slightly damp because you will most likely find a source of water.
  • NEVER drink salt water. It will just make you more thirsty.
  • Make sure it is clear and smells normal.

Fire

  • Never make a fire with wet wood because you will just have a smokey, fire and most likely it will go out.
  • Make sure there is a source of water nearby so if the fire goes out of control, you can put it out.
  • When you make/light a fire you need Dry Wood, Heat Fuel and Oxygen.


     Bush Survival
What Does S.T.O.P Stand for in the bush
  • S. Stands for Stop
  • T. Stands for Think
  • O. Stands for Observe
  • P. Stands for Plan


Signalling for Help
  • First you should scream “HELP HELP I NEED HELP” so somebody will recognise that somebody needs help.
  • Do the S.O.S Signal and a helicopter might recognise you.
  • Use a flare gun so someone will recognise you. 


Basic First Aid

  • Stay calm.
  • Make sure you know what you are doing before acting.
  • Make sure you know what has happened before trying anything.
