Hinesburg Fire Department Visit

We had some special visitors on Monday! A few Hinesburg Firefighters visited our school to teach us about fire safety.  We learned all about the protective clothing that firefighters wear when fighting fires including pants, jacket, and hood.  We even got to see how the mask and breathing apparatus work.  It was very exciting!  The firefighter explained to the children that if there is ever a fire that they should yell for help and never hide from a fire fighter who is trying to help them.  Later in the day we learned all about the fire and rescue trucks outside in front of the school.  The firefighters showed us all of the parts and explained their purpose and answered the children's questions.  Thank you Hinesburg Firefighters!
