A visit to the FIRE STATION

Each of the Yeladim gave a high five/ shook hands with the Fire fighter when he was in all his gear so if they ever come in contact with one they should see fire fighters are safe and there to protect us - no need to be afraid of them.

Touring the inside of the fire truck.



Watching the lights flashing!



We were reminded of the number one golden rule when you are in an emergency situation call 9-1-1!

The Fire fighters also mentioned that from when children can talk we need to try to help our children learn their ADDRESS. He said he has a three year old and he is always asking her what her address is. 

Another important thing we learned there is when children hear a smoke detector go off in their homes
'Don't hid you go outside!'
Children tend to hide when they are afraid which everybody knows is not good in general and very dangerous in a fire!

When we got back to school we showed the Yeladim our smoke detectors in our classroom and tried them out so they know the sound and practiced what to do in case they hear that sound.
*Reminder from the fire department to check your smoke detectors*
