The document is a letter from the FESA Head Office requesting help from a Year 5 class to create an informative poster on fire safety and recovery to distribute to remote Western Australian communities that have shown a lack of understanding of fire safety based on a recent survey, as these areas are prone to bushfires, with the goal of educating people on what to do in a fire and how to minimize effects on individuals and the environment. The poster must gather information from resources like the FESA website and be informative, visually appealing, and easy to read.

5. 2nd May 2011 Dear Year 5 Students, I am writing to formally request your help in ensuring that the entire Western Australian community has a strong sense of fire awareness. A recent survey conducted within a variety of remote communities in Western Australia showed that many people do not have a clear understanding of fire safety and recovery and this is potentially dangerous as many areas Western Australia are prone to bushfires. It is for this reason that I would like to ask you to create a poster on fire safety and recovery that can be distributed to these communities in order so that they know what to do in event of a fire and how to minimise the effects of fire to both individuals and the environment. You will need to gather information from a variety of resources including the FESA website and the poster must be informative, visually appealing and easy to read. FESA very much appreciates your assistance in this matter. Yours Sincerely FESA Head Office
