Fire Prevention Week

The Dunlap Fire Department came to visit us today. Fire fighter Mark Fife explained to the children about the Stop, Drop and Roll; smoke dectectors, and explained to them that firefighters are their friends and they are there to help you. Some of our children were scared of the uniform that the firefighters wear, so Firefighter Michael waited to put on his uniform so the children could see that even though he was wearing all the protective gear it was still the same person underneath. This helped with most of the children. The children were excited to learn that the were going to be able to squirt the fire hose and even tried to squirt their teacher.
