Fire Safety and Prevention

Today we had some visitors. The Lawrence Fire Department visited Hemlock Creek today. The first graders learned about fire safety and prevention. The students were attentive listeners and had some very good questions for these Firefighters. 

The Firefighters assigned some homework to everyone.
  1.  Change the batteries in your fire alarms at home on Daylight Savings Day this fall.
  2. Decide on a meeting place outside of your home in case of a fire.
  3. Make sure your child has their address memorized.
 The kiddos were such good listeners that they received a spirit stick, pencil, and an eraser. After the visit, we completed a Fire Safety sheet together. Here are some pictures from today's visit and activity. Please discuss your fire safety plan at home this weekend.
