Today was an incredible final day of our Hazmat training at Australasia Fire & Emergency Response College!

Our highly experienced fire and rescue trainer delivered top-notch instruction to a fantastic group of students. It's inspiring to see such dedicated individuals learning and growing in their skills and knowledge.

Today, on International Firefighters Day, we would like to take a moment to acknowledge and celebrate the bravery and dedication of all firefighters around the world.

We especially want to give a shout-out to the amazing firefighters at Australasia Fire & Emergency Response College. Thank you for your unwavering commitment to keeping our communities safe and for putting your lives on the line every day to protect us.

Let's all take a moment to show our appreciation for these everyday heroes and the sacrifices they make to keep us all safe.

Happy International Firefighters Day!

Australasia Fire & Emergency Response College is deeply saddened to hear of the loss of a Queensland Fire & Rescue firefighter who tragically lost their life while on duty. Our hearts go out to the firefighter's family, friends, and colleagues during this difficult time.

We would like to honour the firefighter's memory by reciting the Firefighter's Prayer: "When I am called to duty, God, wherever flames may rage, give me strength to save a life, whatever be its age. Help me embrace a little child before it's too late, or save an older person from the horror of that fate. Enable me to be alert to hear the weakest shout, and quickly and efficiently to put the fire out. I want to fill my calling and give the best in me, to guard my every neighbour and protect their property. And if according to your will I have to lose my life, bless with your protecting hand my children and my partner."

Rest in peace, dear firefighter. Your service and sacrifice will never be forgotten.
