Greater Manchester Fire Service came in to see Y2 yesterday to talk about fire safety. Afterwards, the children had the opportunity to look at the fire engine and use the hoses! Even Miss Kelsall had a go! Woodfield Year 2

Anti-social behaviour is #BangOutOfOrder and has serious consequences. For example, if you deliberately start a fire or make a hoax call, you could receive a heavy fine or 6 months in prison.
