Earthquake Drill at Maduya Elementary School
In consonance with the guidelines on the conduct of National
Simultaneous Earthquake Drill, Maduya
Elementary School
conducted the earthquake drill, March 1, 2012, which was participated in by the
teachers and pupils from Kindergarten to Grade 6.
Since earthquake is an unexpected event and disastrous,
everyone must be ready for it everyday and every hour to avoid or lessen the loss
of life and more harm to humans.
This endeavor which was spearheaded by the Department of
Interior and Local Government (DILG) particularly Bureau of Fire Protection
(BFP) was done simultaneously all over the country.
In Maduya
Elementary School , the
Science teachers together with the principal conducted some lectures to the
pupils during the flag ceremonies about the earthquake and the guidelines the
pupils should follow if earthquake occurs. Afterwards, they went inside their
rooms and after a while the signal was sounded for them to demonstrate the
drill on how to get to the safest place in the school.
The pupils seriously followed the guidelines on ‘duck, cover
and hold’ to make themselves safe during an earthquake.
All in all, the holding of the earthquake drill at Maduya Elementary
School was done successfully and fruitfully.
