EMERGENCY WARNING
An Emergency Warning is the highest level of Bush Fire Alert.
You may be in danger and need to take action immediately.
​Any delay now puts your life at risk.

What is the Australian Warning System?
​The Australian Warning System is a new national approach to information and warnings during emergencies and natural disasters like bush fire, flood, storm, extreme heat and severe weather.

The System uses a nationally consistent set of icons, like those above, to show incidents on website and apps.
The System has been designed based on feedback and research across the country, and aims to deliver a more consistent approach to these types of emergencies, no matter where you are.
Australia’s fire and emergency services aim to provide you with timely and relevant information during emergencies.
​

Remember – don’t wait for a warning. Take action quickly and don’t delay.


Covid 19
Nov 2020
​The RAI Committee has been closely following COVID-19 developments. In the interests of minimising risk to our members, our Committee have taken a number of difficult decisions. 

Unfortunately we have had to cancel all the planned events we were hoping to hold during the Easter period & beyond.

We are living in strange & troubled times with recent drought, devastating bushfires and now a global viral pandemic that is at the forefront of our minds as well.
The decisions to cancel and postpone important Rosedale events have been with very heavy hearts and we are extremely disappointed that we are not able to connect, support and celebrate our community at this critical time in our history.

Please stay safe and lets look to come out of the end of this difficult time with a new, happy & healthy outlook.
