Catastrophic fire danger days
Our kindergarten has detailed plans in place to keep your child safe in the event of a bushfire.
On catastrophic fire danger days in the Kangaroo Island fire ban district our kindergarten will be closed and no one is permitted on site.
Our kindergarten’s bushfire risk rating remains R3 (medium to low risk), however the department has reviewed the overall risk profile for Kangaroo Island, and to assist with the management of any bushfire events potentially affecting our site, the department has elected to close all education facilities on the island, on any forecast ‘catastrophic’ fire danger day.
If a catastrophic fire danger day is forecast, we will inform you of a closure after 4pm the day before.
If the CFS upgrade the fire danger rating to catastrophic on the day, our kindergarten will remain open. This is in line with the department’s processes and allows us to more easily manage communication with parents and caregivers in the event that a closure of the kindergarten is recommended by the department. We encourage you to read the Bushfire and your child’s school or preschool brochure for more information on closures and how we will act if threatened by a bushfire. Search ‘bushfire information’ on www.education.sa.gov.au.
