Point Cook Fire Brigade Community Safety Page.

 

Point Cook Fire Brigade is committed to the development of a capable and strong community. Our strategic intent is to minimise the incidence and impact of fire and other emergencies through partnerships, programs and services that empower and mobilise Victorians to be self-reliant before during and after significant events.

“The community responds to and shares the risk and responsibility for community safety and recovery. It is the intent of Point Cook Fire Brigade to Partner with the local community to create resilient safe communities.”

 

Fire Safe Kids Program

Point Cook Fire Brigade has started a targeted Fire Safe Kids Education process to actively seek out and educate student within the local community. This program will be targeted at year 5 students in the Point Cook fire district. It is the objective of the education process to ensure that all children have access to the fire safe message and learn the importance of working with the Fire brigade to create a resilient community that is well educated in safety procedures.

• Point Cook fire Brigade is in the process of contacting schools within the Fire district to organise Fire Safe Kids visits to all year 5 students in the area. And establishing an annual process whereby each year the Brigade will visit students in year 5 at all schools.

• Any other organisation wishing to organise a Fire Safe Kids presentation from the Brigade please contact CFA district 14 community safety on:­ 1800 799 203.
