Do not light a fire today!

Sure does feel like those pesky spring winds out there right now but it's only Winter 🤔

As most people are already aware there is a orange wind warning in place for the Canterbury High Country and the plains (including Christchurch City and Banks Peninsula).

It goes without saying really that today is not a good day to light a fire and if you have had a fire in the past week you really should be checking on it to make sure it is fully extinguished before the winds reignite it.

So far we have attended 4 large fires across the district, with more crews being turned out to other new fires as we write this.

Please be safe out there, winds like this can be extremely destructive.

It's National Volunteer Week.  Big shout-out to all the volunteers in other brigades and services that we work with.

Fireplace ash holds heat for up to 5 days and can spark new fires. Always soak it with water in a metal bucket before binning it.

REMEMBER: COOL ASH BEFORE YOU STASH

See a fire before it starts

Tonight three of our volunteers headed out from the station and made their way down to the highway, working together as a team while building confidence carrying their gear. Every step in full kit is a reminder of why fitness, preparation and teamwork are so important on the fireground. Well done team!

6 days to go! 🔥 The countdown is REAL now.

Meet Grace Poppewell – one of our own from Waikuku Beach Volunteer Fire Brigade.

In just 6 days, she’ll be suiting up in full kit to climb 51 flights in the Firefighter Sky Tower Challenge for Leukaemia & Blood Cancer New Zealand.

Every step she climbs supports Kiwis facing blood cancer.
Every dollar gets us closer to better research, support, and hope.

We’re in the final stretch. If you can, chip in here and help Grace really smash her goal

Happy Mother’s Day 💐👩‍🚒

To all the incredible mums, stepmums, grandmothers, and mother figures — and especially to the mums in our brigade and in the waikuku community — thank you.

Thank you for the love, strength, patience, and support you show every single day. Whether you’re the one responding to the siren, supporting someone who does, or holding everything together at home, we see you and we appreciate you.

From all of us at Waikuku Fire Brigade, we hope you have a wonderful and well-deserved Mother’s Day. 🥰
