Fire Safety Talk :

National Education Fire Safety Programme

With Enniscrone Fire Chief: Mr Seamus Egan.

Seamus and his team demonstrate the uses of the fire engine.	Mr. Egan rolls out National Fire Safety Pack: 3^rd/4^th Class

A talk on Fire Safety was give to 3^rd/4^th Class as part of a National Education Fire Safety Programme by Local fire Officier Seamus Egan, in the presence of the teacher. During the talk the children are given the "Safety Team" pack.

The target group are 8 - 9 year old school children and the method employed to deliver the fire safety message was through a package called "Safety Team". This programme was seen to be effective because
. The children receive a level of fire safety education for an hour through age - appropriate interaction in the school;
. The children return Home Safety Check Sheets, which have been filled out by a family member in the home;
. This completed Home Safety Check Sheet is evidence of the key fire safety message reaching inside the home and is also a valuable resource for statistical purposes; and
. The children are further encouraged to "educate" others, i.e. grandparents, uncles, neighbours, friends, etc. in fire safety.Many thanks to Seamus for a Great Talk.All the classes enjoy a demonstration of the local Fire Engine.
