Fonterra ERT Course

During the first week of May, 17 of Fonterra’s staff took part in the 6th Fonterra Emergency Response Team (ERT) Block recruit course training, held at the Presbyterian camp in Eltham.
The training was provided by Ali McNabb, Nathan Meager, Ian Reid and Jason Steer from Fire and Safety Training Ltd. Training was very full-on and many recruits commented that it was a life-changing experience!
