Fire Wise is new Zealand's most poplular educational Fire Safety programme run by theNew Zealand Fire Service. The focus of the progamme is to teach young people about the dangers of fire and how they can keep themselves safe. Fire Wise is part of our primary curriculum and to back up the classroom learning, last week we all headed off to the new Whitianga Fire Station.
Checking out all the equipment, holding the hoses and water jets, climbing in the vehicles and having the chance to show the fire fighters just how much we knew was really exciting. We now know heaps about:
- not playing with matches and lighters
- being safe near fires
- understanding that fire can be dangerous
- knowing what to do if there is a fire in a room
- practising evacuating from a room in a fire emergency
