HOLD AND SECURE

All external doors are locked – no one can enter or leave the school. The school runs business as usual.

LOCKDOWN

If an intruder has entered our building or any other extreme emergency, an announcement will occur to alert all individuals in the building to move to a secure area (doors locked), and remain there until further notification from school officials and/or police. It is expected that students / staff remain calm, stay quiet, together and students must follow all directions given by the teacher until police take control. Cell phones are to remain off.

FIRE ALARM

Every person in the school building shall take part in Emergency Procedures. During a fire alarm it is essential that all occupants move quickly and quietly from the building, following the instructions of the teachers. Students will use the exit as directed by the yellow card posted in the classroom. Regardless of weather, occupants must move at least 30 meters away from the building to allow others to exit and, if necessary, to provide access for emergency vehicles to the building. During evacuations, teachers will meet all of their students on the back field or designated location. Attendance will be taken. At the end of the fire alarm, students will be notified when to return to the building. Fire Marshall Regulations require that all entrances and exits be kept free of any obstruction at all times. A visitor / student who cannot use the stairs independently (crutches/wheelchair) shall remain in the REFUGE stairwells C & B.
