Plenty of fun on the fire engine for city youngsters in firefighter visit
Nursery and reception pupils at a Wolverhampton primary school got the chance to use a fire hose as part of a visit from local firefighters.
West Midlands Fire Service paid a visit to Graiseley Primary School as part of a special visit organised by nursery teacher, Rachel Edwards.
The visit was part of a school project aimed at teaching children about people in the community who help others.
Rachel said: "I organised for the firefighters to come in to speak to our nursery and reception pupils because our theme this term is people who help us in the community.
"The firefighters came into the classroom and gave us a little talk about their uniform and how it protects them, before the children asked them questions.
"Then we all went outside to look at the fire engine and the children got the opportunity to use the fire hose and spray water. They also got to sit in the fire engine. They loved it."
