Firewise

We were lucky enough to have a visit from our local firemen as part of our firewise work. Here is Max's writing about the visit. Yesterday a fire engine came to school. Brad put on a breathing apparatus he sounded like an alien from planet Zeutron. the water shot out of the hose. The further you tilted the house the further the water went. It went so far it hit the road! The truck had lots of levers and gadgets on it. When the air ran out on the fire suit Brad pressed a button and more air came into the can. Brad knew when the air ran out because he had a special dial. I liked to squirt the hose because not many kids get to do it. By Max
