20-July-2021
The republican action "Holidays without smoke and fire" continues in health camps of the Grodno region. It runs throughout the summer and aims to prevent child injuries and fires caused by childish pranks. Rescuers, together with the traffic police, police, military personnel and OSVOD employees, tell children and adults about safety rules, open the image facilities of the Ministry of Emergencies, and regularly come to children's health and school camps. During such meetings, children always have an interesting entertainment program.
The other day employees of the Ministry of Emergency Situations visited the Zorka Jubilee children's health camp. A lifeguard visit is always a big event for the guys. Guests arrive in a large fire engine, bring with them bright leaflets, books, coloring pages. Talking about safety practices during summer break doesn't sound boring. This time, rescuers focused on the rules of behavior in the heat, during thunderstorms, showers and squall winds, as well as on water bodies and when visiting forests, reminded about the rules for picking berries and mushrooms. When working with children in a playful way, unforeseen situations that can happen at home and on the street are modulated, it is found out which places can be dangerous for games, and algorithms of actions in case of emergency are also recalled. On the sports grounds, the thematic quest game "Code 112" and the relay race "Safety Sportland" are held with the children.
In "Zorka jubileynaya" and other children's health camps, children were introduced to the work of emergency rescue techniques and equipment. The guys tried on combat clothes and held a fire barrel in their hands. By the way, rescuers have already visited almost 30 camps. This work will continue.
