Fire Wise


Today we learnt how fire fighters get ready for fires. We learnt about what firefighters wear to protect themselves. They wear a mask that helps them breath because they can't breath the smoke. They have breathing gear like at the hospital you breath though a mask. They have zips on their boots and they have the boots on their pants to get to the fire quick. They also have jackets they put on. When they have put on all their clothes non of their skin is showing. They have a button they can press so that if they get hurt they press the button and other fire fighters come to help them. They have torches in their jackets to help them see through the smoke. They don't wear their thing that goes over their face so they don't have a crash when they're driving to the fire.

  1. Hi Pirates, it sounds as though you have already learnt so much about fire fighters and what they do. I wonder if there is anyone in your class who wants to be a fire fighter when they grow up? Have a super week - I look forward to reading more about your learning :)
