This is NZ national training center for firefighters, it's world class in training with amazing training facilities.nThey are very welcoming and go out of there way for you.nIf your luck, you will get a tour of the training center.nThis can take up to a hour, but totally enjoyable.
Just finished volunteer recruit firefighters course. The course was for 8 days and could have easily been held for over a month. Great training atmosphere and top facility to learn the skills necessary for day to day fire fighting tasks.
Went to a passing out parade where the recruits provided a showcase of the skills they had learned over 12 weeks of hard graft.
The only purpose built facility of it's kind in the southern hemisphere. Fire crews from around the country and internationally come here to learn all the latest techniques. Food is great here too.
Excellent fire training facility. Thumbs up and hats off to the NZ fire service for keeping the public safe by putting their lives to fight fires.
