By September 6, 2024 No Comments

Meet Lockie, a St Brigid’s student in year 11, he is a dedicated fireman who has been serving the community in countless ways! Starting his training at just 15, he became an official fireman by 16 in 2023.

He was named Rookie of the Year 2023-2024 and remains one of the most active members of the Brigade.

Lockie recently attended a medical training day for emergency response with Central Coast Health and continues to train once or twice a week to enhance his skills. He’s involved in community engagement events and even conducted fire safety checks at schools earlier this year.

From motor vehicle accidents and medical calls to house fires and bushfires, Lockie responds to all calls, big or small. He’s worked alongside other emergency services in various situations, including search and rescues, structural fires, and more.

Lockie has also travelled out of the area to assist other brigades, including fighting fires in the 2023 Hunter Valley fires. His commitment to serving the community is truly inspiring!
