Froglet Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 How cool! We've never had a fire engine visit although I did have a paramedic parent a couple of years ago who brought us an ambulance. Is it straight forward to get a fire engine to come in? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredbear Posted May 22, 2015 Share Posted May 22, 2015 Ah fab. We have one planned for after half term too. Quite easy to organise just contact your regional station. We are also planning to have the Police and the Dental service next term. Nothing like real life experiences in my humble. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it straight forward to get a fire engine to come in? as a pre-school we have had terrible trouble ...but schools are covered under their education programme so shouldn't be too bad. The fire officer said to us to just pop in next time to the station and he would organise it! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our visitors (tadpoles) had to go home today - it's been so lovely to hear excited squeals of "there's a frog!!" Each day! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a pre-school we used to get a visit quite frequently up until about 5 years ago - now it is a straight forward no from them - cut backs :-( - They do give us colouring sheets and leaflets to hand out to the parents.
