Our Dunkerton PreK–3rd grade students enjoyed a fun and educational field trip to the Dunkerton Fire Station!

Students had the opportunity to learn about fire safety, explore the fire trucks, check out the equipment firefighters use, and learn more about the important role firefighters play in keeping our community safe!

A HUGE thank you to the Dunkerton Fire Department for welcoming our students, sharing your knowledge, and making this such a fun, hands-on learning experience!

We are so thankful for our local firefighters and all they do for our community! ❤️🔥
