Today was a very exciting day for the students and staff at the CDLL! The children were delighted to talk with our special guests this morning! Officer Rico and Officer Wilkie joined the children this morning and discussed with us how police officers keep us safe. Daniel said, "They help us when we get hurt." Officer Rico and Officer Wilkie also told us how they help people by making sure we're safe in our cars wearing our seat belts. The children also learned how Officer Rico and the other CMU police officers help the students here on campus. Pelumi commented that the police officers can help students if they fall down and scrape their knees.
During lunch the children were able to have lunch with the police officers! These boys were very excited to spend lunch with Officer Wilkie. We continued our conversations about police officers at lunch when Carter K said, "Look I also have a badge." We spent time looking at Officer Wilkie's uniform and the different patches on his shirt.
The children were also able to explore the police cars!
Officer Wilkie brought is car from St. Johns Police Department. Here is his blue police car. The children liked to see the different colors of the cars!
The Officers are telling the children about the cars before they open the doors! Daniel is climbing in the back seat!
Kaden enjoyed sitting in the driver's seat of the car and turning on the lights!
The children had a blast exploring the police vehicles! Marcilyn said, "Look I can be bucked in! Kaden said, "There's a computer in there." Other children oohed and ahhed over the lights and sirens!
Overall, I think this was a very enjoyable day for the children, staff, and police officers who came to visit!
Have A Great Weekend!
