Fire Fighting Training September 2025

Community Awareness Message 1-2025

Two CFA training props will be positioned in the temporary car park beside UT Crash until early October.

Local brigades will be using them at various times to conduct fire fighting training drills. These drills are only performed in a controlled environment with a number of pre-planned safety precautions in place.

If you do see fire in the general area of the props or car park, before calling 000 please check it is not from one of these props being used.

See also our recent visit to the CFA South East Training Ground for hot fire training.
