Today, with Bonfire Night just around the corner, we received a safety talk from the fire brigade to help keep us safe.
Robert came along from our local fire station to advise the children on how to enjoy fireworks and bonfires safely. He talked about the the laws and dangers surrounding fireworks and fires. He also instructed everyone on what to do if clothing caught fire. Everyone tried on filtered glasses to experience the impact of eyesight damage from a firework. Atticus showed us how to hold a sparkler safety and Stephen demonstrated the Stop-Drop ‘n’ Roll strategy beautifully for us. We were also reminded of the need to be respectful of the very important job the fire services, and indeed all the emergency services, do to keep us safe.
There was lots of discussion and many a question from the pupils as they fully engaged in the safety briefing. It was a very informative session. Thank you Robert.
