Last week, the children in 1st, 2nd and 3rd class had a visit from the local firemen about fire safety in the home. The children listened to Richard Barrett, William Sherwood and Philip O’Neill discuss the dangers in a house which may cause a fire. The children had to identify these dangers on a worksheet.
The firemen also discussed what to do in an emergency, such as calling 999 or 112. A pupil in the class had to demonstrate how to stop, drop and roll if his clothes caught fire.
Each child received a money box from the Kilkenny Fire Service. A huge thank you to Richard, William and Philip for a very informed talk!
And I recognise a dad amongst those firemen 🙂
