Narrative Report on 1st Simultaneous Earthquake Drill

Earthquake is one of the famous disasters that cause people to died or injured.
It cannot be detected when and where it would happen to everyone. This is
mostly happened in places where people are hanging around and working.
Earthquake is understood by being a natural phenomenon caused by the
constant movement of the earth’s crustal plates and due to climate change too.

Connectively, the City of Mati National High School conducted the Simultaneous
school- based earthquake drill on march 10, 2022 at exactly 10am in the
morning. Before the actual drill, Mr. Mark Wesly Requirme, a grade 7 teacher
undertook an orientation. He disseminated the information about occurrence of
earthquake as well the needs to carry out a drill to enhance the teacher as well
as the student awareness on the safety measures before, during, and after the
said disaster. He made mentioned the guidelines for the drills and also pointed
out the possible evacuation area in the school. The event facilitated the drill to
become more successful with 100% teacher and staff participation.

Furthermore, this activity intensified the teacher’s preparedness and high

lightened their awareness regarding disaster risk reduction whenever they are
in time of incidence. It also helps a lot to the teachers and the school in
managing emergencies especially, the earthquake occurrences.
