Fire Extinguisher Training

​

On Friday the 18th of October the Dowerin Cadets completed their Fire Extinguisher certificate. The year 9/10 group and 7/8 group both completed a 3-hour course that covered the Australian Standards relating to fire extinguishers and their placement, Fire - what it is, classes of fire and how to use a fire extinguisher safely and correctly.

The cadets found the course engaging and very relevant to real world situations, with lots of interesting questions being asked. Following on from the theory section, cadets were put through the process of putting out a fire with an extinguisher. Everyone had a go, some a little more reluctantly than others.

Primary Interschool Numero Competition

​

On Friday 25th October eight students from Year 4-6 attended the Primary School Numero Competition, with the heat occurring at Southern Grove Primary School. The students had been training since earlier in the year and were eager to compete against students from a variety of Perth schools. Working in their teams of four as well as individually the students completed many Numero challenges, and though we did not make it through to the finals the students more than held their own amongst some tough competition. We have plans for more training for next year and can't wait to be back! Many thanks to Mr Crute for driving a group of students to and from the event, and Mrs Lou Hagboom for creating our wonderful Numero shirts!
