Fire Officer Louise Smith came to visit us in Nursery today.  We learned lots about her job and got to see her safety kit.  We were really lucky and got to dress up as fire officers.  Some of us thought we would like to do Louise’s job when we are older.  We discovered that fire officers have to do lots more than put out fires.  We learned that they help when the weather is bad and people get flooded.  We also listened to Louise telling us about how she helps out at some road accidents.

Louise taught us what to do if our clothes catch fire.  Stop, drop and roll.  Please ask your children about this.  She also gave all the children some homework to do for Monday.  They have been asked to find out where the smoke alarm is in their house and ask parents to check they are working.
