Yesterday there was a fire at the Tasman Store and it burnt to the ground. We heard the sirens go past our school about 12.30pm. Luckily the fire didn't spread to the art gallery or the petrol tanks otherwise there would have been a huge explosion!
No one was hurt or killed in the fire but the owners will be very upset as they have lost everything. The police are investigating how the fire was caused.
We have been learning about "People who help us" in our community this term at school. The fire service do a wonderful job at helping people in our town. Firefighters have to be trained especially so they know what to do in a serious fire like this. What would we do without them?
