Today we went on our first field trip! We walked to Waterloo Fire Station #4. The students were so excited and quite the "troopers" going for this length of a walk. While we were there, they got to tour the "living quarters" of the firefighters. They also got to see and walk through the ambulance and firetruck. The children loved sitting way up high in the drivers seat of the firetruck. Before we left, we took a group picture by the firetruck with the firemen. As we were finishing our picture, the fire alarm went off. Although very hectic, because we needed to get all the children out of the way so they could leave for their fire call, it was very neat. It's not everyday when on a field trip you get to see the firemen hurry and get ready in all their gear, and the firetruck and ambulance leave the station in such a hurry. The students thought it was very neat to see them go so fast!
