Bring the family along for a practical, fun afternoon with your local Fire and Emergency and St John teams.

See a kitchen fire demonstration, have a go with a fire extinguisher, get a free health check, learn about calling 111 and local AEDs, and pick up some useful emergency preparedness tips.

Plus kids’ activities, giveaways and a free BBQ!

No presentations — just drop in, have a look, ask questions and learn something useful.

Presented with Ahuroa Volunteer Fire Brigade, Fire and Emergency New Zealand, Hato Hone St John and Araparera Community Catchment, working together for a resilient, connected community and a healthy catchment.
