The Unusual Incident which occurred is that at around 02:00 pm, a child slipped and fell on a hula hoop, hitting the right side of their head, sustaining a bump and a mild concussion. By all accounts, the group was playing with hula hoops which were laid out flat on the ground, like in the shape of a flower. Child 1 (C1) was then taken to the bathroom by Staff 2 (S2).
