The senior high school building at our school

has four stories, which increases the risk of an
earthquake. Tell us that when seismic waves of the
same frequency travel through a building, they are
amplified and cause more intense shaking. Tall
structures are thus more susceptible to powerful and
far-reaching earthquakes. The people inside the
school grounds are informed by this infographic on
how to keep secure when the ground begins to
tremble. We will learn more about what to do and
where to go during the disaster as a result.

This Infographic shows the possible disasters

that may encounter to our school; it shows what to
do during the disasters. There are 3 possible
disasters that may happen to our school; these are
Earthquake, Fire and Typhoon. Disaster is
everywhere, so we should have our self-ready for any
disasters happening. This is important to know and
to show this infographic to student to inform what
would be the possible disasters may happen to
school and to know what to do during the disaster.
 "Stop, drop, cover and hold.", a simple sentence
that could save us from harms. We might have been aware
of the earthquake drill, however are we practicing it
properly?

Earthquake is one of the most unexpected disaster

that could happen any moment and anytime. Even when we
were younger we've been practicing its drill. The first
step is to calm down, prepare yourself. Next, go find a
table or anything that could protect you; cover your
head. Hold, stay calm and wait until the shaking stops.
Beforehand, you should also prepare your basic
necessities like emergency kit, flashlight, can goods,
water, and radio.

Why are we tackling this anyway? It is to remind

ourselves that "prevention is better than cure". We
might not prevent the disaster coming, but we can
always prevent its great cause. So as a student, is
there something we could do? Advocate, speak up, and
share what we know and what we've learned. As well as
apply and practice what we're preaching. Our voices
would eventually be heard, so let's keep spreading the
word; to prepare and to be aware.
 One of the disaster that can affect school and the surrounding community is
Earthquake. An earthquake is a sudden shaking of the ground caused by two
chunks of earth’s crust sliding past one another. Although earthquakes are short-
lived, usually not lasting more than a minute, they can leave behind incredible
damage.

Earthquakes strike suddenly, violently and without warning, but identifying

potential hazards and planning can reduce the threat of damage, injuries and loss of
life. By planning and practicing what to do if an earthquake strikes, you and your
loved ones can learn to react correctly and automatically when the shaking begins.

Drop, cover, and hold on during earthquake can help you to survive. Drop
down onto your hands and knees immediately. This position protects you from
falling but still allows you to move if necessary. Cover your head and neck (and
your entire body if possible) underneath a sturdy table or desk. If there is no shelter
nearby, get down near an interior wall or next to low-lying furniture that won’t fall
on you, and cover your head and neck with your arms and hands. Try to stay clear
of windows or glass that could shatter or objects that could fall on you. Hold on to
your shelter (or to your head and neck) until the shaking stops. Be prepared to
move with your shelter if the shaking shifts it around.

If an earthquake happens, you and your loved ones may need to evacuate a
damaged area afterward. By planning and practicing for evacuation, you will be
better prepared to respond appropriately and efficiently to signs of danger or to
directions by civil authorities.
