Student, 11, dies in cabin fire
By PETER CLACK,
Police Reporter
‘ A Victorian teacher struggled heroically to drag ‘two 11-year-old schoolboys from a blazing cabin at Sutton near the ACT border early yesterday morning after an air-conditioner burst into flames.
One Melbourne student died in the fire and another was rescued and airlifted to the Royal Childen’s Hospital, Melbourne, with burns to 100 per cent of his body. A hospital spokesman said the boy was in a critical condition in intensive care.
The teacher, Con Boukouvalas, one of several teachers accompanying 90 Victorian school children from two schools, went to the aid of seven boys in the cabin at White Ibis Tourist Village and Caravan Park.
He had heard screams for help about 12.30am.
NSW Police said the air-conditioner and the aluminium cabin had been well alight, but Mr Boukouvalas had ignored the danger.
As he pulled one boy free, he received burns to his arms, neck and back. He tried in vain to save the second boy but he was forced back by the flames and the heat.
The dead boy is Micah Akkerman, 11, and the injured boy is Nicholas Balgue, 11, both of Kew East Public School, Melbourne.
A NSW Police and NSW Fire Brigade investigators were at the scene yesterday searching for clues to the cause of the fire to submit to the NSW Coroner.
Sergeant John Dagwell said the fire occurred about 12.35pm in a cabin occupied by seven students from Kew East Public School. Five of the boys were not injured.
They had told police they were talking when one boy who wanted to smoke turned on the air-conditioner which burst into flames.
” It was soon engulfed in flames and two boys were trapped inside the cabin,” Sergeant Dagwell said.
White Ibis assistant manager Paul Porcherom said he was awoken about 12.45am but the ACT Fire Brigade had already been called.
He said the students were on an excursion and had been at the park for two days.
The rest of the school party returned home yesterday and Victorian Education Department counsellors were sent to the NSW border to meet them.
The injured boy was flown by the NSW Air Ambulance to the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne.
A spokesman for Victorian Education Minister Don Hayward said the counsellors had gone to Albury on the NSW-Victoria border to meet the remainder of the children being driven home today.
“In any sort of tragedy like this we immediately offer the help of counsellors to help victims cope,” he said.
Department counsellors were also reported to have gone to Kew East Primary School in Melbourne’s eastern suburbs to talk with parents and students.
