Our EYP 3 students, as part of the continuing learning unit, ‘community helpers’ undertook a fascinating field trip to the police station and the fire station . This adventure offered them an opportunity to appreciate the services rendered by these ordinary heroes in society. Firefighter: An Adventure within the Fire Department’s Place The division to fight fire was accompanied by a sense of wonder as the scholars came into contact with the different tools that were in use by the firefighters.

Others were doctors, who 'examined' the children who were 'patients', while other students focused on nursing tasks such as arranging ‘drips’ and sedatives and other molecules. From the role-play, they understood how all the professionals in the h
