The Fire Fighters visit Meadowbank School

Last week we had a visit from the fire fighters at Remuera Fire Station. They came to talk to us about their job and responsibilities, and we had a lot of fun! We even got the chance to climb up inside the fire engine to have a closer look. We have made a photo story about their visit, which we hope you enjoy looking at!

  1. What a great story! Kristen tells me that the firefighters used their hoses to spray water on the trees. I'm glad they didn't spray all of you! Did they make the sirens go? If they did, were they very loud?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Kristen did all those exclamation marks!)

    It sounds like you had an exciting day. I wonder if any of you would like to become fire fighters when you grow up?

    Claudia had great time and no doubt learnt something of Fire Safety. The pictures with the voiceover is just fantastic.

    Wow Daniella told us how much fun she had! Great to see and hear the children on the soundtrack! We loved all the pictures of the firetrucks in the classroom too. Well done Room 18 kids. Thanks Miss Brookshaw and the firemen.
