Aims of Brigades in Schools

Children in particular are at risk from fire. By informing them about the dangers of fire and how it is used safely, the risk of death, injury and property loss can be reduced. Encouraging responsibility appropriate to their age enables children to become self-reliant and prepared in case of emergencies. It is also important that children learn behaviours to protect themselves and others in emergencies.
