As part of the project ‘Water’, KG2R students had the opportunity to observe the operations a real fire truck. They listened to the sirenes, switched on the lights and spoke to a fire fighter on duty. They actively listened to him describing the nature of his job and observed his ability to use all the equipment at his disposition.
The pupils relished the opportunity to wear appropriate clothing and use water hoses diligently. This stimulated their curiosity and expressed their desire to know more. His dedication and patience were evident in the way he handled children’s queries.
The school administration would like to thank Mr Depasquale for sharing his expertise in away which children can understand. Particular thanks go to Ms Romina Bugeja for her initiative to provide a concrete experience for our young ones.
This activity formed part of an ongoing e-twinning project on water.
