Firefighter Visits PCS PreK

On Thursday October 15,  Aaron Breen visited Mrs. Breen's preschool class.  Aaron has been a volunteer at Mortlake Fire Company in Brooklyn for 2 years.  He grew up around  firefighters and medical responders. His Mom, Pre-School teacher Mrs. Breen, has been a member of Mortlake for 29 years and his father, Mr. Breen is currently Chief.  Aaron showed the preschoolers what a firefighter wears and explained each piece of equipment to them as he got dressed.  He donned an air pack so they could hear how muffled and a bit scary a firefighter may look if they ever need help.  They were a little unsure about when he put his hood, mask and helmet on but loved seeing a firefighter in full gear.
