Fire Safety Talk

Primaries 1 to 5 had a visit from the fire brigade today. They came to speak to us about fire safety and Guy Fawkes. These are the important messages we learned about:

We learned that if our clothes set on fire we should. STOP! DROP! ROLL! Ask us to show you how we do it.

If someone is hosting a bonfire, do not throw anything in it.

It’s a bad idea to hide in a bonfire, if someone lights it when you’re inside, you might get burned.

If you drop a sparkler do not pick it up again.

Put your pets inside on Bonfire night.

Don’t play near a fire.

Don’t go too close to it either.

Don’t make prank calls. The firemen might miss a real fire.

Make sure fire is in a safe place and away from your house.

Wear gloves when holding a sparkler.

Wear suitable clothes if going to a fire or fireworks display. This helps keep you safe.

Fire Safety Talk

Today the Firefighters at Bellshill Fire Station joined Primary 6 to talk to them about Fire Safety.  They showed us some video clips about how how quickly fires can spread and keeping safe in an emergency.  We also learned about the importance of testing smoke detectors regularly and also having a fire evacuation plan.  The important message we got today was:

Get out, Stay out and Phone the Fire Brigade out!

We even had a chance to look around the fire engine and the equipment it has on it.  We learned lots and some of the equipment was very heavy too.  Take a look at our pictures:
