Fire Safe Books

Fire Safe (years 3 to 6) and Junior Fire Safe (grades prep to 2) are primary school teacher resource books.

The manuals are designed to assist teachers in preparing a fire safety program for primary school students. The resource manuals are intended to be ideas manuals, not an entire program in itself.

Ideally the units in these resources would be used to complement other CFA programs such as Brigades In Schools and the Mobile Education Unit by providing additional opportunities for children to learn more about fire safety.

The manual is organised into four broad concepts or areas of study:

• Home Fire Safety
• Personal Safety
• Bushfire Safety
• Fire Safety in the Community

The programs address learning outcomes within the Health and Physical Education, Studies of Society and the Environment, and the Science curriculum standards frameworks.

Copies of Junior Fire Safe have been sent to all primary schools in the CFA Area. Copies of Fire Safe are available from the Community Education Co-ordinator at your local CFA Area office, or you can print them off from the website.
