More 'busy' ness with special visitors and children in need


We've had more special visitors to help us think about our 'People who help us' topic


This is Fireman James (Mr Chambers). He is daddy to a little girl in Year 1. He came in earlier this week to tell us about being a fireman!! We loved hearing all about his job and how he helps us and others.
Fireman James showed us how he got dressed in his special clothes when he is called to go and put out a fire or rescue people out of crashes. He has to get changed as quickly as possible so the first thing he puts on are his boots which are connected to his trousers.




Then he puts on a special mask to protect his head before he puts on his helmet.



It's his jacket next with special glow in the dark stripes.



Finally his helmet!! Doesn't he look fantastic!!!!






We asked and answered some fabulous questions and our behaviour was wonderful! Mrs Carter and Mrs Abel were very proud of us. We really enjoyed our visit from Fireman James.


This is Mrs Rees - Daniel's mummy! Can you guess what her job is??


YES - she is a nurse and she is also someone who helps us. She showed us her uniform - a navy blue dress and flat shoes and she showed us her fob watch and what was in her pockets!!


In her bag she had bandages, gloves and plasters and she put a bandage on Daniel!! She also listened to his heart to make sure it wasn't working too fast or too slow! Mrs Rees is a nurse who goes into people's homes and helps them.


Mrs Rees had special gel to wash her hands to get rid of all the germs.


This is her badge that shows she is a nurse.
