Please don't neglect your chimney or flue and make sure it is cleaned and well maintained before firing it up this winter.🔥

Noorat & District Fire Brigade responded to a chimney fire over the weekend. ℹ️ The flue had become detached from the wood heater, this combined with a build-up of creosote had caused the fire.

❤️ Thankfully the family was home and were able to put water on the blaze and safely escape before CFA crews arrived to fully extinguish the fire.

The image here shows the build-up that caused the fire inside the chimney.

Today Terang hosted a training day! We started of this morning with some bacon and eggs and a catch-up with our neighbours Dixie CFA. Then it was "Yellows On!" And we where off.

We headed out to one of local land owners and went about practising our grass fire fighting skills. We had set up a course of gates in which the fire fighters had to control a ball through.

It was a fantastic day had by all and a great team work exercise.

A big thanks goes to all those who attended and to our local community who allow us the space to do some training.

If you are intrested in becoming a volunteer there's no better time to reach out and apply.

In the great Australian tradition, many people have turned the Australia Day holiday into a long weekend.

If you plan to camp during this weekend and want to enjoy a campfire, remember that an adult must be present at all times. Additionally, please ensure the campfire is completely extinguished before you leave.
If you notice a campfire unattended please call Triple Zero Victoria "000"

The CFA has already responded to fires caused by abandoned campfires this summer.

Please note that all campfires, along with fires for warmth or personal comfort, are prohibited on Total Fire Ban Days. During these days, you cannot light a campfire.
