This morning, the whole of Year 5 attended an assembly ran by Leicestershire Fire Service. We learnt about fire safety in the home, what to do in the event of a fire and what materials a firefighter's uniform is made of. Some children even had the opportunity to try on a fire fighter's helmet.

As you can see the children learnt so much during the morning.......

"Fire spreads and smoke fills the whole room in 3 minutes." Daniel.

"The ceiling temperature in a fire is 600 degrees centigrade." Kylum

"You must use the back of your hand to test the temperature of a door handle." Lareen.

"When opening the door you must crouch down low and open it a little at a time." Addison.
