Today, 13th April, our P5 children had a visit from Seamus, a fire fighter from Kilrea. Each year the fire service speak to all P5 pupils about fire safety. The topics they were learning about were, safe use of electrical devices and safe use of candles, matches and open fires. They were also told how to check their home smoke alarms once a week and change the battery once a year. Finally they were told how to have a family fire safety plan so that everyone in the family would know how to get out, stay out and call the fire brigade out if a fire started in their home.
