Curator’s clip description

Lightning starts a fire in an old stump near the schoolhouse and everyone works together to put it out.

Curator’s notes

Social, moral and ecological lessons are a feature of the Yoram Gross children’s productions and, as this clip demonstrates, these messages are seamlessly embedded into the stories. Here, the characters demonstrate different safe practices in putting out a fire. Teamwork, a core feature of the series is also emphasised.
