On 23rd August, Sharon McCleary came and spoke to P.5,6,7 about fire safety. Sharon works for the Scotland Fire and Rescue service, so if you phoned 999 and asked for the fire service Sharon would usually be the person you would speak to. She taught us the importance of working fire alarms and having an escape plan. Every hour there’s a house fire in Scotland. Sharon gave us lots of advice to make sure we aren’t the unlucky ones. We then watched a video where we saw the dangers that cause house fires more commonly than anything else. Before she left she told us we can get a free fire alarm and ‘Fire Danger check’ to make sure our home is as safe as possible. We would like to say a big thank you to Sharon McCleary, who took time out to come teach us about fire safety!
