Mock Drill Report
The Mock Drill for Earthquake of
our school was unanimously decided by the school Faculty to be conducted on the
29th of May, Tuesday, which is actually our HPE day. It was a fine
day which indeed boosted the moods of the teachers and the students.
Prior to the day, the following
teams were formed and briefed by the Principal and the Disaster club
coordinator, Mr. Phurpa Tenzin.
1.
Search and Rescue Team
2.
First Aid Team
3.
Security Team
4.
Casualty Team -
for the Mock Drill
5.
Parents Team – for the Mck Drill
The tags for different teams were
prepared and also, borrowed some things from the BHU esp. for the First Aid
Team. The exit and entry ways were marked and even demonstrated the
movement(s). Children were first made aware of the siren and henceforth, it
would serve as the earthquake for their alertness and preparedness during the
real earthquake. Each of the above stated teams was given ample time to prepare
and to act. The members are now the full time members and they would be given
timely workshop(s) by the school’s Disaster Club Coordinator Mr. Phurpa Tenzin.
Each team is being lead by a teacher and except for the Security Team, who is
lead by the school’s caretaker.
With this Mock Drill, even the PP
children are now aware of such a thing and they clearly know their designated
evaluation ground. Two children from the PP were a part of casualty team and
during the mock session their seriousness has merely brought us that “Life is
indeed very precious”. Of all, we were very much proud and happy that all were
very serious and to our dismay our cook, Mr. Kanjur, one of the casualties was
cheered the most due of his seriousness. The drill session concluded after
lunch with a Mock Drill session with the boarder girls and boys- in their
hostels.
Lastly, we would like to thank
the “DDM” and “Save the Children”, for the fund, without which it would not
have been possible to conduct the Mock Drill in such a manner.
