Another great training session in the beautiful Wombat Forest!
If you're interested in joining we train most Sundays at 9am, and have an evening session once a month on Thursdays at 7pm.
Winter is a great time to join as you'll have plenty of time to learn before Summer starts. Contact us to find out more 🚒😀

We’re glad to have another new recruit to take through their fire fighting training, but can always use more people. Last year was a very busy fire season with around 50 call outs and every volunteer makes a difference. If you’re interested please check out the CFA website and submit an expression of interest. Alternatively email [email protected]

👨‍🚒Please support two of our amazing firefighters as they climb 28 floors with 25kg of kit on Saturday 12th September 2026. This is the first time our brigade has joined the event which raises money to fight cancer, depression and su***de.

They will be wearing full turnout gear and breathing apparatus, which is heavy and makes breathing slow and difficult. This essential safety gear is used for structural fires and situations with toxic gases.

Please support the team by donating and sharing a message of support as they train for this gruelling event. 👏
