Fire Service Visit

Date: 5th Nov 2023 @ 7:30pm

We had a visitor to our classroom this week, Firefighter Josh.

He told us about his different roles; putting out fires, rescuing farm animals from ditches, carrying out fire safety checks, helping when there is a flood, cutting people out of cars in an accident and dealing with grass fires and chemical spills. One job he has never personally had to do was rescue a cat from a tree - an idea from the tribe. 

He talked about Stop, Drop and Roll. This is what you do if part of your clothing caught on fire.  Well done Oliver for an excellent demonstration. 

We listened to a fire alarm and discussed how we would get out of the house, checking door handles to see if they were hot and crawling along the floor to keep out of the rising smoke. 

Once out stay out, you must never go back in for anything.
