🚒🔥 Help Us Find Your Hydrant!

Hidden or covered hydrants can cost valuable time when we need them most.

As we are about to head into another bushfire season, we’re asking residents to take a look around their property and make sure their nearest fire hydrant is:

✅ Clearly visible
✅ Easy for firefighters to access
✅ Free from grass, soil, mulch, plants and other obstructions
✅ Not covered or buried

The photos below show just how easily hydrants can become hidden under grass and soil. In an emergency, every second counts, and being able to quickly locate and connect to a hydrant can make a real difference.

🔵 Look for the blue cat eyes on the road — these help indicate the location of hydrant points. You may also see a yellow “H” marking nearby to help identify the hydrant location.

If you have a hydrant near your property, please take a few minutes to check that it can be easily found and accessed.

See a covered or hidden hydrant? Let us know so it can be brought to the attention of the appropriate authority.

Please share this post with your neighbours — you never know whose hydrant might be hidden.

This weekend the Brigade held its Annual General Meeting celebrating the achievements of the past year and electing our Officers and Administrators Brigade positions for 2026/27

We would like to congratulate all members elected to positions for the next 12 months and thank those who have served in these roles over the past year. The ongoing success of our Brigade is only possible because of the dedication, commitment and countless hours our members put in both on and off the fireground.

On this occasion some of our firefighters were also recognised for their efforts during the major flood events between 2021 and 2023 and were presented with the NSW Premier’s Flood Emergency Citation medals.

In closing two of our members were also given the Life Membership Award for their Commitment to the brigade giving over 52 years combined service to the RFS.

Do you have some spare time this long weekend, an excellent thing to do would be to check your smoke alarms (or install some if you haven't got any).
The simplest and most essential check is to press and hold the test button on your smoke alarm until you hear a loud, ear-piercing alarm. This confirms that both the battery and the internal circuitry are functioning correctly. If the sound is faint or intermittent, it may indicate dying batteries or a failing unit, even if it hasn’t started chirping yet.
ONLY WORKING SMOKE ALARMS SAVE LIVES.

Grays Point attended two callouts today to reports of smoke from Grays Point hazard reduction. First call with NSWFR and second with NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service

Some smoke sighted and investigated, but ultimately determined no risk or need to extinguish as well within the hazard reduction boundary.

NPWS are asking if everyone can stay steer clear of the burnt area from last weekends hazard reduction and keep off Savilles creek track and the rest of the burn area for the next few days as there are a couple of burnt trees very close to the track that will be getting an arborist assessment in the next day or two before the closure is lifted. The intent is to have everything opened for the weekend.
