Firefighters Visit Foundation

Firefighter visit to Foundation

Last week our Foundation students became firefighters for a day!  They learnt all about the jobs firefighters do and what happens when the alarm rings at the fire station.  Did you know they have only nine minutes to get dressed and ready?  There were many challenges our mini firefighters faced, including cleaning a toxic chemical leak, saving Fred on a stretcher bed, and breaking down the door to escape the burning house.  The visit complimented the classroom work around "How we organise ourselves - Community." Wow!  Everyone learnt so much and now many are wanting to be firefighters when they grow up.  Thank you to Heat Kids for the wonderful experience they provided our students.
