E-BOOKS

There are five interactive E-books on this website to help guide children through their FAST Heroes learning journey.

The E-books introduce the FAST Heroes (Timmy and his grandparents) who then take children through a series of fun and interactive tasks. The E-books are unlocked one-by-one, creating a sense of anticipation and intrigue.

Alongside the E-books is Basecamp, a section of the site that children can use to share with their parents and grandparents what they have learnt – helping ensure the life-saving knowledge is passed on.

GAMES
AND SHOP

These sections add a gamification element to the campaign that helps keep children engaged and enthused.

START PLAYING

GAMES TO UNLOCK
There are four fun online games starring the FAST Heroes that children can unlock. This is done by earning Diamonds that are rewarded for completing tasks in the E-book and Basecamp sections of the website.

ONLINE SHOP
There is also an online shop where children can spend the Coins & Diamonds they earn. There are a range of FAST Heroes goodies that can be purchased and downloaded, from Face Mats to Jigsaws and from Greeting Cards to a Bedtime Storybook.
