Experience day at the fire brigade: children discover exciting adventures!

On Saturday, December 14, 2024, the Wels volunteer fire brigade invites you to experience the fascinating world of the fire brigade up close from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Entry to this special day of experience is free. "We want to make children's eyes shine again this year and inspire young people for the fire brigade craft," explains the Wels fire brigade commander Roland Weber. Families can enjoy handicrafts together, in which the little ones can design their own fire engine under the guidance of their parents. Brave children also have the opportunity to explore the exciting labyrinth of the respiratory protection exercise with real fire brigade helmets. Reports by Volksblatt show the commitment of the fire brigade, children and adolescents to bring the important tasks of the fire control.

Another focus is on the care roles and the relationship that the youth keepers build with the young people. These contact persons are not only responsible for fire-fighting questions, but also pastors and confidants. Younger children in particular often seek a motherly friend in the youth welfare women, while older young people tend to prefer a buddy type. The design of a respectful relationship is crucial: children need to know that they can entrust their worries and that their wishes are taken seriously. This is also emphasized Education.jugendfeuerwehr.de where it is mentioned that trust between the group leaders and the children creates a positive group climate and prevent conflicts.

The event in the main fire station Wels, Hamerlingstraße 3-5, not only offers the opportunity to experience fire engines up close and take great souvenir photos, but also to strengthen trust between the young people and their supervisors. It is an invitation to everyone to spend an unforgettable day in the sign of the fire brigade.
