Visit to the Fire and Ambulance Services Academy (FASA)

July 2024

A visit to the FASA was organised under the Child Development Fund (CDF). The visit included an introduction to the specialised training facilities and a career talk. This activity not only helped broaden the horizons of the CDF participants, but also inspired them to develop the belief that they are always ready to face challenges and have the courage to take up responsibilities. The understanding of the fire and ambulance work helped them formulate personal development plans and explore their career aspirations, which enlightened their long-term development.
