We started our week with a visit from the Fire Service. They told us about how to keep safe, by knowing what we shouldn't touch because it is hot. We talked about what to do if the fire alarm goes off at school or home and the importance of practising the plan and testing our fire alarms regularly. We then got to look at a fire engine's equipment and climbed inside. We finished with having a turn each at squirting the hoses.

We also had a visit from the police, and the police officer told us all about how you can recognise police person. She also told us about the equipment she uses and how it keeps her and us safe. She also showed us what she keeps in a police car and we got to listen to the different sirens.

Mrs Greenway brought her Giant African Land snail in to see us. We were amazed at how big it was and it isn't even fully grown! We watched it moving about and digging itself into the soil.

We followed up this with our time in the woodland where we hunted for snails and looked at the other wildlife in the woodland area. We even saw a pigeon sitting on its nest!

Our topic is planting for the next 2 weeks. We have made the role play into a garden centre and have enjoyed planting lots of seeds.
