Firewise

As part of our unit on ‘Firewise’ we had two Firemen from the Halcombe Fire Brigade come and talk to us about what we have been learning.

They reminded us that,

·         matches and lighters are tools not toys and are only for adults to use

·         If there is a fire you need to ‘Get down, Get low, Get out and shout FIRE, FIRE FIRE’!

·         It’s important to get low because the smoke is poisonous and you can’t see through it so   you must get out quickly

·         Everyone should have a safe meeting place at home in the event of a fire

·         It’s important we get ourselves out and not our pets or toys (the firemen will do that)

·         Only adults light fires

·         Everyone should regularly check their smoke alarms

GET FIREWISE!!!
