Emergency Decisions Worksheet
Read each situation carefully. Choose actions that protect you first, then get help from a trusted adult or emergency service. In Australia, call Triple Zero (000) for police, fire or ambulance in an emergency. Do not put yourself in danger.

- Hide nearby until someone else deals with it.
- Use your phone to film the smoke.
