Phoenix Programme at Liberton Fire Station

A number of our students volunteer for the Phoenix Programme at Liberton Fire Station each week, in the evenings. The group (a mix of LHS and Gracemount pupils) put on a practical demonstration last night and I thought it was worth mentioning that they were fantastic – confident, polite and incredibly well disciplined as they carried out their drills. They put out fires, climbed ladders into smoke filled towers and demonstrated life saving skills. It is my understanding that in advance of the night, Melanie Mason (the only girl in last night’s group) had also made a local radio broadcast to advertise the evening. Their parade drill also made a lasting impression.
