Fire Bell


The fire department visited us this afternoon.  With lights and sirens.  The fire bell was pulled by little fingers as we were all coming in from lunch.  Our students did a great job of evacuating the building, some still in socks because they were taking shoes off, some with coats on because they were still in the hallway.  This brings up the conversation of only using the fire bell in emergencies.  As a class we talked about all those trucks and fire fighters responding to our emergency call when there was no need  and someone else having a real emergency and not able to get help.  Please reinforce this message at home.  Perhaps a good time to review your family evacuation plan.

The Calgary Public Library Book Truck is visiting Beddington Heights School every Tuesday from 2 – 3 p.m. starting tomorrow November 20, 2018.  The Book Truck is a library on wheels that will be set up on our compound.  Students can climb aboard and borrow from their collection with their public library card.  
Students in our class with their library card tomorrow will have the first chance to check out the truck and borrow books to take home. 


Bring your library card tomorrow to get started on the book truck!
