Training is an essential component of any emergency service. By training regularly in different areas, we are prepared for any situation which may arise. Weekly Training Members of the Tea Tree Gully SES meet every Wednesday night at 7:30 to train at a variety of locations. These include Anstey Hill, Shopping Centres, Local High Schools, and various other locations where we are able to simulate possible emergency situations. Specialist Courses In addition to weekly training sessions, crew members are also able to attend weekend courses held by other SES units. These cover topics such as Basic Rescue, Chainsaw Safety and Operations, Vertical Rescue (phases 1, 2 and 3), Storm Damage and Operations, Land Search, Heavy Rescue, Senior First Aid and Communications. There are also many other courses available to suit the particular tasks which different units have to perform on a regular basis. |
