Before half term our special visitor was Dawn from the fire station.

All the children were very excited to ask their questions that they had thought of. As well as asking our questions we looked at lots of different photos that Dawn had brought of different incidents that the fire service help with (fires, car accidents and cats stuck up trees).

Willow class also played a game where the parachute was smoke and we had to find our way out by staying as close to the floor as possible.

We talked about dangers in the kitchen - Willow class knew lots of about this  as we are learning about safety in our cooking lessons! 

 

This week Willow class were lucky enough to visit the fire station. We got to look at all the special clothing fire fighters wear to keep them safe and they showed us how they come down the fireman’s pole when they have an emergency. Sean had great fun trying to climb back up the pole.

We were very lucky to be able to explore the fire engines and look at all the different equipment, some of which we were able to hold, before hearing the very loud sirens.
