Fire Safety Talk

9th May 2025

We were delighted to welcome two local firemen from Sligo Fire Service to our school for an engaging and educational talk on fire safety in the home. The firemen spoke to the children about the importance of fire prevention, highlighting what is safe and unsafe to do—such as remembering to plug out electrical appliances when they’re not in use and never leaving candles unattended. The visit was both informative and interactive, as the children got the exciting opportunity to try on real firefighting equipment, including an air tank, fire jacket, and even a temperature gauge. It was a memorable experience that helped reinforce vital safety messages in a fun and hands-on way.
