Bushfire Survival Kit





Survive- To stay Alive.

We will need an emergency pack to stay alive. The emergency pack will us if someone is injured or hurt.

Our first 20 items are…

-6 water bottles - Rope
-5 tinned food cans -Poles
-First Aid Kit - Panadol
-Blanket - Toilet paper
-Torch - Tool box
-Compass - Hand wash
-Spare Clothes - Pocket knife
-Tarp - Matches
-Frying pan - Axe
-Shovel - Survival book

Then our group discussed the ten items:
- 6 pack water bottles
We need clean water to drink. If we don’t have clean water we can die. We will die because we will be dehydrated.
- 5 Tinned Food Cans
We included tin food because it last longer. We also chose it so we don’t starve. You don’t need a fridge to make it fresh.


- First Aid kit
We included a first aid kit incase someone gets injured or hurt. We also need it because in a bushfire you have no public access to a hospital or doctor.


- Blanket
We need a blanket to keep warm. If we don’t have a blanket we will get cold. If we get cold we can get very sick.

- Tarp
We need a tarp for shelter during the night. We also need it for harsh weather such as rain or wind storms.

- Torch
We need a torch to see during the night. If we can’t see during the night we can get lost. If we get lost we might get injured or hurt.


- Shovel
We need a shovel to dig a hole to go to the toilet. If we don’t have a shovel to go to the toilet we could spread some viruses.

- Poles
We need poles to hold up the tarp. We also need it to hold up anything else.

- Toilet Paper
You need toilet paper to keep clean. We also need it so we don’t get a disease. If we get a disease we will get sick.

- Matches
We need matches to keep warm. We also need them to have light and see.


Storage Box
For our survival kit we used a cardboard box. We used this box to keep our survival things inside. Our box has a lid so nothing falls out.
