Maple Class started their visit to Forest Row Fire Station with a fantastic tour of the building and learned all about the different jobs a firefighter does.
\nThe class asked lots of brilliant questions to the firefighters, such as:<\/p>\n

\u201cHow do you know where to go to put out a fire?\u201d
\n\u201cDo women work as firefighters?\u201d
\n\u201cHow long is the hose?\u201d<\/p>\n

The children each had a go at putting on the Fire fighters protective clothing, exploring the fire truck and spraying the hose at the training tower.
\nThey learned lots of things about why it is important to wear protective clothing, how long the ladders are, how to climb up into a fire truck, what a fire alarm sounds like, how the fireman find a water source and lots, lots more!<\/p>\n

The children then waited at the bus stop for the 291 bus to Tunbridge Wells. They spotted the bus stop sign and the \u2018H\u2019 sign which shows a water source.<\/p>\n

When we got off the bus, we walked through Hartfield village to Pooh Corner and had a look at the \u2018Poohseum\u2019. There was lots of interest and discussion about the toys and photographs all about Winnie the Pooh and his friends.<\/p>\n
