First Responder Day
2025-06-11 09:30 - 11:00 (Australia/Melbourne) | NSW – Central Coast
Blacksmiths Public School is inviting the community to come together in a heartfelt show of appreciation for our first responders and their families.
Join the celebration as local first responders arrive with their emergency vehicles — and keep an eye (and ear!) out for a possible helicopter landing!
This event celebrates Thank a First Responder Day, a national day of appreciation organised by Fortem Australia recognising the dedication and sacrifice of first responders and their families.
As Australia’s leading not-for-profit supporting first responder wellbeing, Fortem ensures that those who protect and serve our communities receive the gratitude and support they deserve.
This event is open to the public, and we invite everyone to join us in showing appreciation for our first responders and their families.

Join us at Bunker’s Hill State School for our Thank a First Responder Day Fundraiser on Wednesday, 11th June 2025.
This special event is a wonderful opportunity for our school community to show appreciation for the incredible work of our emergency service workers.
Students are encouraged to dress up as their favourite first responder, and all funds raised will go towards Fortem Australia, supporting the mental health and wellbeing of first responders and their families.
We look forward to coming together to celebrate and thank these everyday heroes who work so hard to keep us safe.
Bring along any thank you cards or small tokens of appreciation to share with the first responders attending.
