We've been talking about being 'Firewise' - knowing what to do in the event of a fire.
Here are the key messages from the Fire Service:
Fire spreads very fast.
The smoke from a fire is poisonous and people must not breathe the smoke. If they do, they will not get out of the room.
You need to get out of the room by staying UNDER the smoke!
Go to the safe meeting place.
Where is your family's safe meeting place outside of your house?
What should you do if you hear the smoke alarm?
How many working smoke alarms do you have in your house?
What happens if there is a fire alarm at school?
What happens if there is a fire alarm at school?
HI B4. We will be starting the Firewise programme next week, so we'll be able to share our learning with you. Some of our parents are volunteers in the Clyde Fire Brigade. Do you have a volunteer Fire Brigade in Reefton and if so, are any of your Mum's and Dad's fire fighters?
ReplyDeleteWe look forward to reading more about your learning on this topic, and sharing what we learn.
From Mrs Kitto and Room 6
Dear Room 6
ReplyDeleteWe learned that fires spread really quickly so we know to get out fast and we know that we don't go back in until the fire is out.
We have a volunteer fire brigade too, but none of our mums or dads are in it. Jamie's cousin Hannah is in the fire brigade though, and she is a senior student in our school.
Did you know that older kids can be in the brigade? Hannah is 17.
bye for now

ReplyDeleteMy safe meeting place is by the letter box. If there,s a fire at school you have to go to the cage. If you were in a room and you saw smoke coming out of your door you get out the window.

ReplyDeleteMy safe meeting place is outside the gate. We have 3 smoke alarms in our house. When we have a fire at school we go out to the cage. If there is a fire at the door we go out the window. Fire spreads very quickly.

ReplyDeleteAre safe meeting place is by the gate. Last year there was a chimne fire. Samuel smelt the smoke first. We went to are safe meeting place. I could see sparkes coming out of the chimne. I got to hold Eben. Then we could go inside. Mum said we were a champ. If there is a fire at school we will go to the cage. Wonse Eben burned his foot and Wonse Rebecca burnt her nackle by a litter.
