Fire!

Pictures of "The day after" taken by Julia Grando are
at the bottom of this page.
Our fire drill practices paid off and the school evacuated
quickly when the real thing occurred this afternoon at about 2
p.m.
Laura Amendola (with her digital camera!!) was in Ms. Svatos'
Grade 10 English class in Portable 4 and she got some great photos
because she was very close to where the fire started in the woodworking
shop.
Apparently, a stray spark from the wood-cutting machine ignited
some sawdust.
Fire trucks blocked off Atwater. Students and staff stayed on
the south side of the street.
Firefighters climb to the roof to direct the water onto the flames.
This truck was wheeled in to pump the water as well.
I'll post more of Laura's photos as they arrive.
The next page has some pictures taken with the
school's digital camera.
Here are 2 photos by Julia Grando taken the day
after the fire.
Looking down on the roof repair.
A close-up of the above.
