Kindergarten Visits the Fire Station!

Recently, Kindergarten students walked to Firestation 13 for a tour and to drop off a gratitude wagon full of goodies they collected for the firefighters.

They learned about the different tools on the firetruck and even got to climb through the backseat!

They toured the station kitchen, living room, and gym. At the very end of our tour, the firefighters were called away by a blaring fire alarm.

Students waved goodbye as firefighters hopped on the firetruck.

What an exciting end to a field trip!
