This morning Class NSJB went to the opening of the newly combined Fire and Police Station (the first of its kind in Suffolk).
We got to use the hoses, wear the helmets, sit in the fire engine and in the police car. We would like to thank all of the fire officers and PC Hassler for showing us around and answering all our questions.
Here are some of the things our class said:
"I learnt that the rope is called a line" Jack
"I found out that everything they wear is fireproof!" Harry
"I have learnt what tools fire fighters use to cut a vehicle up" Lucy H
"I learnt that instead of shouting for water they use signs" Alex Mackenzie
"Smoke is more dangerous than fire because modern materials give bad chemical smoke when burned" Kasper
"I learnt that smoke is not called smoke. It's called Fire Gas!" Guy
Ollie's favourite bits were looking through the thermal imaging camera and Mrs Picton breaking the hose!!
