A Trip to the Fire Station

Meredith's class spent a lot of time learning about fire safety in October.  Her teachers planned a trip to the Hemby Bridge Fire Department, so the children could meet with some of our local fire fighters and also see what goes on at a fire department.

This was Meredith's first field trip, and she was super excited! They first went into the bay to see the fire trucks and equipment.  One of the fire fighters showed them what they have to wear when they are fighting fires. 

Next, they were taken into the living quarters to see where the fire fighters sleep, eat and relax (when they can).  I think the kids enjoyed the big recliners the most!

I loved this dining room table!

They all had a great time, and enjoyed their first field trip to the fire station!
