20.01.2022 Please watch this short video about working safely from home

20.01.2022 I is so important to have both a Plan A and Plan B when leaving home if a fire occurs. Your Plan should be to leave early before a fire starts on bad days, but if that is not possible you need multiple plans to ensure you can leave home and go to a safe place.

20.01.2022 Hoax calls to 000 are an offence and waste the time of our Volunteers who are called out unnecessarily. They can also result in death or injury if we are chasing a hoax call when a true emergency is reported and precious minutes are taken for our crews to get to an actual incident. Ararat Brigade have been out to too many of these calls lately and been frustrated and wasted their valuable time.

15.01.2022 The Fire Danger Period for our part of the Pyrenees Shire commences at 1am. on Monday 30th. Please see the CFA web site for all the information on what you can and can't do in the Fire Danger Period.

15.01.2022 Make sure to check the Fire DangerRatings everyday. This is a prediction on how a fire would behave if one starts and the actions you should take. Stay informed and stay safe.

15.01.2022 Please prepare and plan for this fire season. The outlook may look favorable in our District but with rain comes growth and when dry we may be faced with fast moving grass fires.

14.01.2022 With every dollar donated being matched, it's a great time to donate and support mental health services

14.01.2022 Interesting article, but please look at the CFA website re plants to have for a fire smart garden and actions to take to make your property and family more fire safe this fire season. Stay safe.

12.01.2022 Silence is the last thing you want to hear in the event of a fire. Install smoke alarms in all bedrooms, living area and hallways and ensure they are interconnected so all alarms will sound regardless of where a fire starts.

11.01.2022 Saw this on another post.

10.01.2022 One day that we will never forget. We also remember all the firefighters, first responders and all the innocent people who did not get to go home on this fateful day.

09.01.2022 Do the right thing. Stay safe and well.

09.01.2022 Please stay safe and well.

09.01.2022 The most common cause of harvester fires is material collecting on hot engine components There are several ways you can prevent harvester fires on your pro...perty. Some of our top tips include: Postponing paddock work during the highest fire-risk periods Run regular maintenance checks on farm machinery Monitor weather conditions throughout the day and stop operations if it changes. Remember to always ensure you have appropriate firefighting equipment in place. You are required by law to have a nine-litre water-pressured extinguisher on hand If you’ve got any questions on preventing harvester fires, let us know in the comments below!

08.01.2022 So glad Shennel came through this horrible ordeal but this is why we teach Cover your Face, Stop, Drop and Roll to young children and then reinforce the message throughout their school years in the hope that no child will have to suffer as she did.
