Local fire departments have been by recently to talk about fire safety with students at Sandy Creek Elementary School.

A number of firefighters with the Sandy Creek and Lacona volunteer fire departments have been in on several days to speak with students outside of the school.

During the presentations, students learned about fire safety, having a plan of action for emergencies and all the services fire departments provide to their local community. Then, students were able to check out the firetrucks and equipment.

Were really appreciative they were able to come and impart these important skills and knowledge that are so important to learn early, said Principal Tim Filiatrault.

The students also learned about cooking safety to avoid burns, and there was time for them to ask any questions they had.
