In this animated bitesize video, Firefighter Jack explains the Stop, Drop and Roll technique.  This technique is the best course of action to take if your clothes ever catch fire, hopefully this will never happen to you, but it is always best to know what to do and the three steps you can follow to put the fire out. 

  • 1 - Stop
  • 2 - Drop
  • 3 - Roll

Teaching children this technique from a young age,  could one day help to save their life, should they ever need to use it in an emergency.

How To Use

This bitesize video would be a very useful addition to any fire safety - Health and Wellbeing session in school.   The accompanying lesson plan, which can be found linked to this video below,  provides details on how to develop a short practical lesson that encourages the children to practise the 'Stop, Drop and Roll' technique together.  This bitesize video would also be invaluable to use as an additional resource during periods of celebration throughout the year such as at Halloween or at Diwali when children are at greater risk of being in close proximity to candle flames.
