On Tuesday afternoon we took a trip down to our local fire station on East India Dock Road as part of our learning about ‘People who help us’. The firefighters told us all about how they help the community, from putting out fires to helping people stuck in lifts. They showed us how they use their fire hydrant to fill the hoses and fire engine. They were kind enough to teach us how to use their hoses which were very powerful! It was so exciting! The firefighters also allowed us to sit in their big fire engines and try on their helmet! Overall it was an amazing trip and we all had so much fun. We want to say a big thank you to Poplar Fire Station and not forgetting, all the parents who joined us and helped us!
