Bargersville Community Fire Department

The Bargersville Community Fire Department visited our school this week to talk with us about fire safety. Students enjoyed listening and sharing their knowledge of safety during a fire. The third graders also had the opportunity to see a fireman in full gear and take a look at the fire trucks. All the students were able to climb inside and look around a real fire engine.

Several of the topics that the firemen encouraged the students to talk with you about are:
1. Having a meeting place that everyone knows about in case of a fire
2. Checking your smoke detectors to see that you have enough that are working properly
3. Knowing two exits out of your room in case of a fire
4. Knowing to exit your house immediately if there is a fire
