Why Britain is Great: Emergency Services

October 23, 2015
On day 4 of 'Why Britain Is Great' week, children celebrated our emergency services who work tirelessly around the clock to keep us safe from harm.  Our pupils looked at what constitutes an emergency and when a call to 999 should be made. They also considered when it would be more appropriate to call the police's non-emergency number 101. After listening to examples of hoax calls, the children discussed why it is so mportant to never waste the emergency services’ time.

Our younger pupils were fortunate enough to have a visit from both the police and fire services where they asked lots of interesting and thoughtful questions.
