Fire department and autumn walk

The beautiful thing about living in a huge country is that there are just so much to do. Even for school field trips, the teachers can easily bring the kids to anywhere and lessons can be conducted. Children can learn so much through all these visits.

Ann's field trip for this month was a visit to the fire department and an autumn walk. In the autumn walk, the children were introduced to various types of leaves. It was a fun outdoor lesson!


The fire captain of the Alburtis Fire Department


Explaining the various types of fire vehicles and equipments which a fireman can use


Listen and learn. Important for all kids to have all these extra knowledge. Remember the Asia Tsunami in 2004.
How an eight-year-old girl managed to save hundreds of people on the beach when she remembered what
she learned in class about the signs of a coming tsunami. Knowledge goes beyond the four walls in a classroom.
That's Ann's best friend in class, the little girl in green jacket
