Elementary students in Brudenell, Lyndoch and Raglan got a surprise visit on Wednesday from the Fire department.
Fire Chief Jordan Genrick says they decided to pay the kids a visit after the fire department learned that students from Grades 1-4 had their class trip cancelled due to extreme heat.
“We caught word of that, and that they were having a water fight, so we jumped into action and headed up to the school with some firefighters and a truck and lots of water.”
Genrick described pulling into a laneway next to the playground with what was essentially a ‘giant water gun’.
“We actually have what we call a monitor, which is a water cannon on top of the truck. And we opened it up and let it fly and the kids were excited about that.”
