A week about Fire Safety Mon 10th - 14th October 16

Being aware of Fire Safety is very important for everyone - it can save lives!

We learnt about the 3 Ps of Fire Safety;          Prevent!   Plan!   Practise!

We thought about how fires start; candles, matches, lighters, BBQs, kitchens

                             and made posters about how to Prevent fires.

We thought about how to Plan what to do if there was a fire in school.

We found lots of Fire Exits in school.
We noticed they have a special sign that lights up, even if there is a fire!

We listened to the Fire Alarm so that if it ever goes off, we know what it is and then what to do and how to behave safely.

And then we Practised moving safely to the fire exits, and even crawling close to the floor if there is lots of smoke and answering the register quickly and quietly once we are safely outside.

We watched some programmes to learn about Fire Safety (see link above to Elmo and the fire) and how Fire Fighters help us.

And then, at the end of the week, we visited the Fire Station at Istra!! We saw all sorts of exciting things and talked to the Fire Fighters!



 Someone (?) even dressed up in the Fire Fighter's fire gear......
We had a great time and would like to say a huge Thank you! to all the Fire Fighters at Istra! We know so much more about staying safe in a fire!
