At the end of lunch, Margaret escorted the class from the playground and sat the children down ready for registration. While she was taking the register, she noticed Jake struggling to breathe and changing colour.

She rushed to Jake, who was choking and stood him up. She tried to clear the blockage with back thrusts but this didn't work. In the end, she used abdominal thrusts. To her surprise a coin, from his dinner money, flew out.

At the time she didn’t think much of it. After Jake had left school, she was feeling shaken as it could so easily have been a completely different ending, had she not had life saving skills.
