June 7, 2022<\/strong><\/p>\n

There’s a new face at the Kingaroy Fire Station … former Blackbutt boy David Triscaru has joined the team as a 4th Class Firefighter.<\/p>\n

David grew up in Blackbutt and attended Yarraman P-9 and Nanango State High School before moving down to Brisbane.<\/p>\n

His career path then took him to the mines in Central Queensland and eventually to Sydney where he was working as a crane operator.<\/p>\n

“I was making good money,” he told southburnett.com.au,<\/strong> “but I was not feeling any fulfillment in my job. I began looking for something that would give me more purpose.”<\/p>\n

He was living next door to the fire station at North Bondi at the time, and began chatting to the firefighters there.<\/p>\n

“Four years later, my dream came true.”<\/p>\n

He moved back to Queensland and in January 2021 applied to join the Queensland Fire and Emergency Service.<\/strong><\/p>\n

“It was a 12-month process getting approved,” he said.<\/p>\n

When he was finally accepted, David undertook a gruelling 16-week training program at the Queensland Combined Emergency Services Academy at White Island.<\/p>\n

“It was pretty intense learning and progressing every day, building on what we had learned the day before,” he said.<\/p>\n

He graduated from the Academy on May 26 and began work in Kingaroy just five days later.<\/p>\n

David was one of 14 recruits who graduated from the most recent course.<\/p>\n

They have now been sent to fire stations right across Queensland.<\/p>\n

David will be based at the Kingaroy Station for at least four years, joining the five other full-time staff based at the station.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
