Little Hayes had a brilliant visit from Rob Burrows of SARA today! 🚣🌊 Rob talked to the children about staying safe around water, showed them his rescue equipment and dry suit, and let the children have a go at pumping up the rescue raft themselves. Learning about water safety and the people who help us has never been so much fun! Visit our website to read more and to see photos.
