A Narrative Report on Fire Prevention Drill

Date: December 1,2022

Event: Fire Prevention Drill

Information:

Fire can cause large scale damage to any premises within a small time. This makes it
critical for schools and other academic environments where there are combustible materials, fire
hazards, and a lot of vulnerable kids who don’t know what to do in the event of a fire to carry out
regular fire drills . This is surely going to make the evacuation process very difficult.
When December 1, 2022, the Cebu Bureau of Fire Protection opened the Fire Drill, that all
S.R.N.H.S. students participated in. The event talked about the safety tips and instructions that every
student to do in case of fire emergency.
(The Scout who is at the back of a policeman is Scout Secretary Christian Gesta, who is going to
demonstrate the students if how to put down the fire)

All subject teachers of S.R.N.H.S. are to excuse some of our boy scouts from their classes
from 8:00 a.m. -10:00 a.m. in the morning because they will assist the BFP personnel & participate
during the demonstration of Fire Prevention Drill. With their involvement in this activity, they will gain
knowledge in SAFETY FIRST as part of their advancement purposes.

Fire safety drills – why is it important?

Every school, regardless of its size, needs to carry out fire drills on a regular basis, as it will help
students and teachers know what to do and not to do during a fire. It will also help them fully
grasp the escape routes of the school building and the instructions they must follow that will
ensure that everyone gets out quickly.
Fire drills can help little kids who are still maturing understand what fire safety all is about and
what they should do when there is a fire. This can also help reduce disorderly behavior,
confusion, and panic. It will also help teachers to be conversant with their roles during an
emergency situation .
As you probably know, it is the responsibility of the school director and staff to help students
evacuate to safety during a fire, so it is of critical importance that they know what steps to take.
So, if they can practice keeping their cool and remaining organized and calm during a fire drill,
chances are they will be able to ensure the safety of students when there is a real fire.
Fire safety drills in schools are of critical importance as it helps do the following –

• Access how quickly students and teachers can evacuate from the school premises.
• Test emergency evacuation plans.
• Remind students of the location of emergency routes and assembly points.
• To remind students of the sound of fire alarms
• To identify areas where signs of a fire may not be clear to people
• To ensure that all exits, and emergency routes are free from obstructions of any kind
• Creates a window for firemen or wardens to practice their duties

The Fire Prevention Drill was successfully accomplished.
