As part of the L.V. Rogers school goal to increase student engagement in learning and leadership opportunities counsellors Karl Machado and Jon Francis organized a day for a group of Grade 9 boys to visit with the Nelson Fire Rescue Services.

The boys were put through their paces and learned what it takes to become a firefighter and rescue personnel (both the physical and intellectual capacity).

The boys had a tremendous time during this worthwhile experience.

Thanks to Fire Chief Simon Grypma, and firefighters Scott, Greg, and Jeff for their time.
