THe fire assemberly.

As part of the Achieve agenda that was new this year, and our form’s responsibility to be involved with the local community, we thought about bringing in someone from the community into Jo Richardson, to speak to Year 10 as it will motivate and educate us. 10H was determined to do this and Faith  looked up a Local Fire Brigade service, and got their contact details. From there Faith wrote out a draft email, and showed Mrs Maloney, their form tutor, which then Mrs Maloney forwarded onto our local Fire Brigade Service at Barking Fire Station.

On the 24^th November, Year 10 had period 5 off because the London Fire Brigade Service generously agreed to come into our school to speak to us about the dangers of fire, and how to stay aware if there is a situation of a fire.  They had a range of topics and showed us a presentation about the consequences of fire and also gave us an opportunity to ask questions.  The experience was very inspiring and interesting.  Afterwards they said that they would be happy for some year 10’to visit the London Fire Brigade Service.  We feel very privileged to be able to have the opportunity to arrange for someone to come into school and speak to us about this issue.
