Fire Prevention Week Activities!

Posted October 9, 2020

Fire PreventionGuelph, Ont., October 5, 2020 – We’re inviting kids, and parents, to test their fire safety knowledge on Fire Prevention Day, Saturday, October 10.

Using the game-based learning tool Kahoot!, you and your child can participate in a real-time virtual multiple-choice quiz to discover how much you both know about the simple, but important steps that you can take to keep you and your family fire safe at home.

Hosted by the Guelph Fire Department, the virtual quiz takes place at 10 and 11 a.m. For the 10 a.m. quiz use this link http://bit.ly/ServeUpFireSafety10AM and for 11 a.m. use http://bit.ly/ServeUpFireSafety11AM.

First-time users will be prompted to download the Webex app and you will need to open kahoot.it in a second tab. A unique Kahoot! game code will be shared with participants before the quiz starts. The top three players of each game will receive a fire safety awareness certificate signed by Guelph Fire Chief Dave Elloway.

A teen to senior version of the fire safety quiz is also available at kahoot.it/challenge/0760647 until October 10 at 6 p.m. Play online with your friends and family. There’s no limit to the number of times you can play so challenge yourself to obtain the top score and be a fire safety champion.

This year’s Fire Prevention Week theme is ‘Serve up fire safety in the kitchen’—a message that’s being delivered by fire departments, including Guelph.
