This was the aftermath of a large fire which ripped through Asmall Primary School, Ormskirk, last night.
Some folk were in tears after the incident which saw the roof of the school's nursery destroyed; the lady who dialled 999 said firefighters were there in minutes.
No one was injured in the incident which saw a large response from both LFRS and Merseyside fire service; between them they managed to drive six fire appliances down narrow Tennyson Drive to park near the school entrance.

The school's closed today and a parent's already set up an online fundraising page to support the school
LFRS posted this on its incidents page:
Date: 17/06/2021
Time: 19:30:00
Address: Tennyson Drive, Ormskirk
Six fire crews (including some from Merseyside Fire and Rescue Service) are tackling a fire on Tennyson Drive in Ormskirk.
The building was well alight when firefighters arrived at the scene and crews are working using breathing apparatus and hose reels to bring the fire under control.
The fire involved three rooms within the building and firefighters are bringing it under control using breathing apparatus and three main jets. Tactical support is now also being provided by the Lancashire aerial support unit.
Update 21:30hrs – Crews have brought the fire under control and are now stripping back in places to check for signs of hidden fire spread.
They will remain in attendance for some time yet, damping down any hot spots.
