The Fireman Come for a Visit! Fire Safety for Team 1.

On Friday, September 11, 2009, the students from Team 1 had an exciting visit from the Sycamore Volunteer Fire Department! Fireman Donn and Fireman D were on hand to explain some very important information. The students learned about fire safety, and what they should do in a real fire. They were all shown how to stop, drop and “rock”. The firemen also explained that even though they wear a lot of specialized equipment, children should not be afraid of them and should never hide from a fireman. The firemen also wanted everyone to know how important it is for everyone to have a fire evacuation plan for your house and you should practice using it with your family.

Afterward, the students were given a very special and exciting ride on the fire truck! Thanks again fireman Donn and fireman D and to the entire Sycamore Volunteer Fire Department!
