The children were excited as they got the chance to sit inside the fire engine and explore all the different equipment that firefighters wear to keep them safe. 

The highlight of the afternoon was definitely getting to have a go with the powerful hose! Everyone was amazed by how strong the water was.

A huge thank you to Tyne and Wear Fire and Rescue for taking the time to visit us. We all learned so much and had a fantastic time! It was a truly memorable experience for our children.

After the reading, each child got a reading pack to take home, which included two books and a fun colouring activity. We also learnt some catchy new songs that the kids are excited to practice at home. It was a great way to spark a love for reading and creativity in our little ones!

Emily talked to the children about her job as a baker and explained how she helps people by making delicious cakes and treats for her bakery. The children were keen to learn about the different tools and equipment Emily uses in her shop. 

She kindly brought along some of her baking equipment for us to explore. The children particularly enjoyed looking at the whisk and had lots of fun pretending to mix ingredients, just like real bakers!

To make the visit even more special, Baker Emily treated us to some of her tasty creations for everyone to try. They were absolutely delicious and enjoyed by all.

A big thank you to Baker Emily for taking the time to visit us and help bring our learning to life!

Nurse Faye came to visit our class and told us all about her important job. She showed us her uniform and explained how she helps people when they are feeling unwell or need medical care. The children were fascinated to hear about the different ways she looks after her patients.

We even had some hands-on practice! Nurse Faye taught us how to apply a bandage, and everyone had a turn practising on a teddy bear. The children also used a stethoscope to listen carefully to their own heartbeats and tried out a special light to check eyes, just like real nurses do.

We had great fun learning about this important role and have loved continuing our learning in the classroom by pretending to be nurses in our role play area.

A big thank you to Nurse Faye for coming to visit us — we really enjoyed it!
