The CFA visit

On Tuesday morning, Adrian, Michael and Steven from South Morang CFA paid us a visit as part of our Community Helpers unit.
They brought in their firetruck and showed us all of the equipment on the firetruck. Steve showed us lots of super long hoses, hose triggers and ladders. We got to sit in the truck and put the sirens on. The best part was some of us even got to shoot the firehose. The water shot out really far and high into the sky.


Michael and Adrian talked about their uniform. It is very heavy and the CFA firefighters need to carry lots of equipment when they are on a job. The have helmets and oxygen tanks to breathe clean air during a fire.


They also taught us what to do if there is a fire in our home. When the smoke rises, we need to 'Get down low and go, go, go!' Or if any of our clothes catch fire, we need to 'Stop, drop and roll!'


We would like to thank Adrian, Michael and Steven for coming to visit us. We learned a lot about what the CFA do and what to do if we see a fire.
Angie: I liked the fire engine. It was fun.


Filip: The water was going up in the air. The siren was really loud.


Thomas: I saw the firetruck had a hose and a ladder.

This Lemonade can't get any sweeter...


Hi there

You may or may not have known that we where learning about the letter 'l' last week. We learned about the sound it makes, we made a list of things that start with 'l' (including a list), and finally we made some super sweet Lemonade.


We checked our recipe to make sure we had the correct ingredients and followed the right procedure.

First there was the lemon squeezing.

Then we added the sugar to water, after which we added the lemon juice.

Next we added more water, gave it a stir and put it in the fridge to chill.


We ended up with a drink that tasted remarkably like Lemonade.


Lovely!
