What an amazing day we have had! Year One were lucky enough to meet some firefighters and they taught us all about how they keep people safe. Thank you so much for the visit @HitchinFire1

Great to see our very own @HertsFireDog Reqs on the red sofa this morning. Reqs is officially retiring after 11 years of service with Hertfordshire Fire & Rescue.
It's time for Reqs to retire. Owner Nikki Harvey told #BBCBreakfast it's 'paws up' after more than a decade helping Hertfordshire Fire & Rescue https://t.co/MxRcIo6G4T
