It's Firewise Time!

We have been learning about how to be Firewise. The local Fire Fighters visited our school.... don't forget to check your smoke alarm.
The children talked about their learning...



Being Firewise
What do we know now?
I learnt not to play with matches and to not give them to another kid. Give them to adult. Get out fast and know you’re safe outside by the mail box. Do not light a fire on paper.       Dominic

I know about the firefighters putting out the fire without a hose. I learnt get down, get low get out fast. Going to a safe meeting place the mail box. I have 3 smoke alarms.   Zachary

Get down get low get out fast. If there’s a fire get out fast. Check your smoke alarms.   Chin Lung

Get down, get low,get out fast.   If it was on something it would fall over and make a fire. He had a smoke alarm when something beeps and tell mum and dad there’s a fire in the house.    Samuel

Get down, get low get out fast. Don’t play with matches. Don’t get your toys. Don’t put a match near your bed.    Declan

Matches are dangerous. Lighters are dangerous too. Give them to an adult. Get down, get low get out fast.    Anna

Get down get low get out fast. You shouldn’t go back and get your toys if there is a fire inside.     Sophia W

Fires can start in the kitchen they can burn the curtains and make them cause a big fire. Get down get low get out fast. Don’t play with matches. Don’t play with cigarette lighters. And don’t play with candles.     Mason

Don’t play with matches and don’t play with lighters. Give the lighters to the adults or give matches to an adult. Kids aren’t allowed to play with matches or lighters.  Shout out fire fire! Call 111. Get down get low get out fast.     Claudia

Get down get low get out fast. Don’t leave candles near your bedroom. Go to the window or door. Go to the mailbox. Don’t hide if you think you’re going to get told off. Fire men are there to help you.     Rylan

Give a grownup the matches. Call the firemen if there’s a fire if a candle falls over. Don’t leave matches on the ground or in a low place. If there is a fire get down get low get out fast. Don’t come back for your toys most nights check if the smoke alarm is ok. Find your safe meeting place which would be at the mailbox.    Call 111.       Ella

If there’s a fire get down get low get out fast. Fires are really dangerous because the smoke you can’t breathe the smoke. You have to breathe under the smoke where there is fresh air. If you hear the smoke alarm beep there is smoke. The smoke can smell the smoke. Get down get low get out fast. Go to your safe meeting place.  McKendrick
