First day back at school after the Easter break and the children in Year 4 were visited by firefighters from the local community fire station.
They delivered the SPARKS programme which aims to develop children's knowledge and understanding of fire and road safety. Areas covered were the risks and causes of fire, fire escape plans, how to make an emergency call, the impact of hoax calls and road and in-car safety.
Children also learned what to do if their clothing ever caught fire- STOP, DROP and ROLL!
Before the end of the session, all the children got the opportunity to take a look inside and around the fire engine.
The children thoroughly enjoyed the session and we are grateful to the fire service for taking the time to help keep our children safe.
