As part of our inquiry unit about keeping ourselves safe we are learning about fire safety. We brainstormed some questions about fire safety that we wanted to investigate. Some of our questions were:
1. I wonder why firemen wear masks?
2. I wonder why fire is hot?
3. I wonder why some fires are put out by airplanes and helicopters?
4. I wonder why firemen need to use fire trucks?
On Friday we visited the Eastbourne Fire Station. We were lucky to have almost all of our questions answered! Some of us felt frightened when fire fighter Mike put on his mask and protective clothing, but we were relieved to find a smiling face behind the mask. We had a great time holding the fire hose and exploring the fire truck.
