The Firehall (KT)

We are so glad that we got to go to the firehall today. When we got there, the firmen were away on a call. We almost had to go back to school without seeing even a single firetruck. After a little game of tag, we were so happy to see the firetruck coming back. The firemen taught us some important fire safety rules, some great safety tips, and with Andyn's help, we learned how to STOP, DROP and ROLL. We were excited to sit in the firetruck and see all the tools and equipment. We loved seeing the jaws of life. We had so much fun using the hose to put out the "fire". We even managed to give a few cars a carwash! We learned that firemen are not scary and that underneath all that big equipment are people who can help us. Miss Taylor even got to try on all the equipment so that we could see it all. When she was ready to fight the fire, the bell rang and the fireman had to leave quickly for another call. What a fun morning! Thanks again to all the firemen!
