Campfires

The campfire is an excellent place for a community to bond through conversation and food. To make this is a safe space please ensure the following requirements are being met:

  • All campfires must be properly contained. We recommend a washing machine drum, half a metal barrel/drum, or metal/ceramic bathtub.
  • The ground and airspace within a distance of 3 meters from the outer perimeter and upper most point of the fire is clear of flammable material
  • There must be a hose connected to a water supply or a vessel with at least 10 litres of water available for immediate use
  • An adult is present at all times when the fire is alight who has the capacity and means to extinguish the fire
  • The fire does not occupy/vessel exceeding 1 square metre in any direction
  • Always ensure that the fire is completely extinguished before you leave the site, or ensure that a person who is capable of extinguishing the fire is left in charge of it
