Fire Station

For Etta's Preschool class they were learning about helpers in the Community. They learned about Policeman, and Crossing Guard and Fireman. We then planned a field trip to visit the Fire Station. As we pulled up so did the big Fire Truck. It honked the horn for all the kids. We met the fireman and they showed us the fire pole and told us not very man stations have a fire pole anymore. Then they took us for a tour of their kitchen and training room. Then we heard their alarm and they had to leave. We stayed for about 15 minutes but they didn't come back which meant they were on a long call. We will have to go back and get the full tour. But Etta and Gibby didn't know any different and loved it. She tells everyone she went to the fire station and saw the firemen.
