For one of the more eagerly awaited outings, this morning a group of young people, foster carers and staff went to the Essex Fire Museum in Grays to learn about fire safety and see historic fire engines and safety equipment.
The highlights of the trip were undoubtedly spraying water from a fire hose attached to a real fire engine that we had helped fill up earlier and then riding around the grounds of the fire station in a fire engine with the siren blaring.
A great time was had by all and thanks to Roger at the Museum for making the visit so enjoyable.
