The students of Lawrence Kindergarten had the privilege of welcoming the Inwood Fire Department for a Fire Safety Day celebration. This event coincided with Fire Prevention Week, which spanned from October 6th to October 12th.
Throughout the week, the kindergarteners dedicated time each day to learn new aspects of fire safety. On Monday, they explored the ABCs of Fire Safety with the help of Sparky the Fire Dog. Tuesday the children created their own fire hats and learned about the importance of safety gear.
The highlight of the week was on Wednesday, when firefighters and paramedics visited the school. The children had the opportunity to examine the various tools and equipment on the fire trucks and ambulance, as well as learn about the protective gear used by these first responders. This hands-on experience was both educational and exciting for the students.
To wrap up the week, the children read books about fire safety on Thursday and wore the color red on Friday, demonstrating their enthusiasm for the topic.
The kindergarten students thoroughly enjoyed the visit from the Inwood Fire Department and the engaging activities that accompanied Fire Prevention Week.
