Service Opportunity

The Wellington Emergency Response Team (WERT)/New Zealand Response Team 8 (NZRT8) based out at the rural fire depot in Tawa, are holding their annual 12 hour exercise on Sunday the 28th of October. This exercise is a large training exercise, giving them a chance to put their skills to the test, and ensure they are always ready to be deployed. A critical part of this exercise is the live casualties.

Volunteer casualties play an important role in helping bring intensity to the exercise. Casualties are placed in strategic locations around the exercise area and are then given a variety of injuries to act out. In many cases, we use special effects make up (fake blood and bones etc) to add realism to the exercise. The team then is tasked with finding the casualties, doing first aid, then using a variety of extraction techniques to get them back to the control point. In addition to being a lot of fun for the volunteers, it’s a great opportunity for them to experience how a disaster response might work.

Date: 28th of October

Location: TBD

Time: The day will be divided into three rough time slots:

  • 6am-10am
  • 10am-2pm
  • 2pm-6pm.

What is in it for me: help the rescue team be operationally ready for emergency situations, see behind the scenes in Emergency Response scenarios, and have a fun day out.

You younger students (Year 10 and below) may need an adult to accompany them.
