FIRE, FIRE!

This week we have been preparing for our visit to the Fire Station.
It's been a serious business!


  • We have watched some fire safety films.
  • We have made fire officer name badges.
  • We have done fire fighter training in the gym,
  • We have painted and drawn pictures of fires.
  • We have built a fire engine and played lots of fire fighter games.
  • We even learned a song about fire, click below to listen.

Here are some of the interesting things we saw at the Fire Station, see if you can guess who their latest recruit is!!
 Which number can you see on the fire engine?
This is the big map that shows the area covered by the Istra Fire Station.

All the hoses must be put back carefully after they've been used.

How many fire extinguishers can you count?

Each firefighter has their own personal breathing apparatus.

Demonstration of how to use the mask and breathing apparatus.

Can you guess who is under all this equipment?

In maths we have been exploring the concept of pairs (not pears!)
Can you see the different pairs that we have been looking at?




Homework
Please talk about fire safety in your home. What is your plan if there is a fire?
Ask your child to draw a map of their escape route if there is a fire.
