We were very lucky to have a visit from Archie and Vernon this Tuesday, two firefighters who spoke to all of the boys in the school. They taught them some very important things such as:
1. If your clothes catch fire – ‘Stop drop and roll’
2. If you suspect a fire put the back of your hand to a door to test if it is warm before you open it
3. Check your smoke detectors weekly, NOT by standing on a chair but by using a broom or stick
4. Have smoke detectors on the ceiling as smoke and heat rises
5. 999 is the number you dial to contact the emergency services- police, fire, ambulance or coast guard
