Here’s what the students have to say about their visits to the
Chatham-Kent Children’s Safety Village
Dear CK Safety Village Staff,
We had a fun time at the Children’s Safety Village today. It is a
really great place to come and learn about fire, road and water safety.
Firefighter Dawson told us that we need to have a plan and a meeting
place to be safe in case of a fire. We liked checking out Sparky’s
kitchen for things that might cause a fire. It was fun climbing out the
window and down the ladder in Sparky’s bedroom. We are going to ‘bug’
our parents to check the smoke detectors to be sure that they are
working.
Special Constable Wolting taught us that police officers, firefighters
and paramedics are safe strangers. We learned about when to call 911.
Our favourite activity was driving the cars around the roadway. We
tried to obey all signs and signals.
Troy Labadie told us that blue ice is the strongest ice. Grey ice is
often not safe especially if it has cracks and snow on it. We will make
sure we are with a buddy or an adult when we are near water. We will
wear life jackets and always sit down in a boat.
We want to say thank you to all of these people for helping us to learn
more about safety.

Grade 1 students
Dear Staff of the Safety Village,
Thank you very much for the great day we spent learning at the
village. We learned a lot about electrical safety from Matt. Now we
will remember how electricity can hurt you if not used properly.
Firefighter Barb taught us how important it is to get out of a burning
building FAST and to practise fire safety in the home. Special
Constable Brenda helped us adjust our helmets so we could practise the
rules of the road and ride the bikes safely.
For these reasons, we think the CKCSV is a great place to learn how to
stay safe.

To staff of the Chatham-Kent Safety Village,
Thank you for our great trip. We enjoyed playing Farm Feud and liked
using the ambulance equipment. The internet safety video was funny and
we learned a lot. All the things we learned will help us in the future.

Dear Safety Village Staff,
Thanks for letting us come to the Safety Village. We learned a
lot about being safe. We really enjoyed “The Great Escape” game.
Thanks for letting us ride the Gators. We enjoyed going into Sparky’s
bedroom and climbing out the window. Thanks for letting us colour
pictures too. We hope you had a good time too.

Dear Safety Village,
We had fun at the village. We learned about fire safety,
police/street safety and water safety. We really liked the mini cars,
Sparky’s apartment and putting our hands in ice cold water. Thank you
for inviting us and teaching us about safety. Thank you also for giving
us a pumpkin to decorate.
Love,
Grade 1/2
Dear Special Constable Hull, Firefighter Barb and Troy,
Thank you for letting us come to the Safety Village. We liked
playing the computer game about fire safety. It was fun climbing out of
the bedroom window! Thank you for teaching us about water safety and
police safety.
