Last month, the local Fire Safety Department conducted a Fire Drill session for our students at Sandipani muni School, Food for Life Vrindavan. The purpose of the drill was to ensure that every student knows how to exit safely and quickly in case of a fire or in any other emergency. In the session, the students were taught the method of how a building would be evacuated in the event of a fire, and how the existing fire alarm system would be activated if any emergency occurs.

They also learnt about the to-dos in case of any emergency, which includes:- how to respond to the fire alarm, stop then and there whatever they might be doing, start moving out of the building and close the door if they are the last one to exit it, leaving the lights on, move to the nearest exit, take the stairs, clear the sidewalks, watch for the smoke sign, not to panic and wait for the all-clear.

The girls were quite enthusiastic and participated during the session while gaining an invaluable insight into the steps involved in case of a fire or any such other emergency. We thank the department for conducting the Fire drill for our students.
