PREP NEWS

A visit from the Glen Iris Fire Department.

On Friday the 17th, our Preps had an exciting visit from the local Glen Iris Fire Department! 

Despite their busy schedule, the firemen generously shared their knowledge of fire safety, discussing good and bad fires and ways to stay safe. 

The highlight of the day was seeing Miss Steele and Miss Stirling try on the firefighter uniforms and gear, sparking excitement among the students. 

The firefighters emphasised the importance of communication within families during emergencies. They encouraged the children to go home and have a conversation with their parents or guardians about creating a fire safety plan. This plan would include identifying a meeting point outside the home in case of a fire and discussing what actions to take in case of an emergency. 

We extend our sincere gratitude to the Glen Iris Fire Department for their informative and engaging visit, leaving our students with valuable lessons and cherished memories.​
