NATIONAL FIRE SERVICE DAY

NATIONAL FIRE SERVICE DAY

National Fire Service Day is observed every year on April 14 to commemorate the heroic firefighters who lost their lives during the tragic Bombay Dock Explosion of 1944.

To pay tribute to these brave heroes, a Fire Mock Drill was conducted for students of Grades VI to VIII on 18th April 2025 at Atmiya Vidyapeeth by Gandhidham’s Firefighter Officers and their team.

Detailed information was provided to students, teachers, and bus drivers about the various causes of fire and the different methods used to extinguish it.

The use of tools such as fire hoses and fire extinguishers was demonstrated. Teachers, students, and bus drivers had an excellent hands-on experience by actively participating in the mock drill. The firefighting team taught them how to manage and extinguish fires during emergency situations.

The officers also performed a jaw-dropping water spray demonstration using fire hoses at different speeds and distances, which left everyone amazed.

The entire drill was conducted with utmost care and safety in the open ground of Atmiya Vidyapeeth. An ambulance was also arranged on-site for medical safety purposes.

Atmiya Vidyapeeth feels immensely proud and salutes all the firefighters who selflessly risk their lives to perform such extremely dangerous tasks in the service of others.
