To educate and train the students for an unforeseen emergency like fire or any natural calamity, Podar International School Sara City conducted a mock exercise and evacuation drill on Tuesday 13th Feb 2024 for classes nursery to grade IX. It was organised in the school premises under the guidance of the Principal.

Immediately after the sounding of the siren, the students were asked to leave their classes and evacuate the school. Guided by the teachers, the students assembled at the assembly point – the allotted safe zone. Following all the safety measures, the entire building was successfully cleared within a span of 1 minute and 10 seconds.

The drill was organized to check the readiness of the school to face any such emergency during any natural calamity and also to make the students and staff aware about the Fire Fighting rescue operation and its procedure. These mock drills help in meeting the challenges in adverse situations and in coping with the situation during the time of natural and man-made disaster.
