To create awareness among the staff about disaster management, a mock fire and evacuation drill was conducted on 03rd August about fire-fighting techniques and the ways to respond swiftly in times of such emergency situation.
The mock drill was carried out in the school to prepare staffs for any such eventuality under the fire risk reduction programme. The purpose to organize the mock drill was to check the readiness of the school to face any such fire emergency and also to make the staff aware about the Fire Fighting Rescue Operation.
A group of staffs, volunteers armed with necessary paraphernalia required for fire fighting and rescue operations positioned themselves at vantage points to guide and assist the students in the mock fire and evacuation drill. The students were escorted by their subject teachers to the school ground after the hooter sound. Once all had assembled on the ground, they were advised not to panic in case of any disaster. They were instructed to be with teachers at the time of disaster and follow the instructions given to them by their teachers.
Mock drill was monitored by Principal Mr. Senthil R. He addressed the assembly and had interaction with staff regarding their perception of this drill. He also addressed certain precautions to be taken care of at the time of emergency.
