Asha Sharma) direction, the drill was coordinated more efficiently, emphasizing its importance and ensuring that everyone took it seriously. Students observed firsthand how seriously the Principal ma’am and The Headmistress ma’am took the mock drill and set a positive example for them to follow.

Students understood that Disaster management is crucial for preparedness and response to unforeseen events that can cause harm to individuals and communities. They learned that a disaster is a sudden, calamitous event that causes significant disruption, destruction, and distress, often resulting in loss of life, property damage, and environmental impact.
They came to know that there are two types of disasters: Natural Disasters, such as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, and tsunamis, which occur due to natural processes, and Man-Made Disasters, caused by human activities, such as industrial accidents, terrorism, chemical spills, and nuclear incidents.
The mock drill team educated them about earthquake causes, protection, and rescue methods, like Drop, Cover, and Hold On. During an earthquake, individuals were advised to drop to the ground, take cover under sturdy furniture, and hold on until the shaking stops. They understood that together they can make a difference and were told about evacuation plans and how to form rescue teams.
They understood the importance of First Aid, as basic first aid skills are essential for providing immediate assistance to injured individuals during disasters. This includes treating wounds, performing CPR, and stabilizing injured persons until professional medical help arrives.

It’s crucial to understand different types of fires, including Class A (ordinary combustibles), Class B (flammable liquids), and Class C (electrical fires), and how to extinguish them safely.
They understood fire prevention measures, as schools should have fire prevention measures in place, including fire alarms, smoke detectors, and fire extinguishers. Students and staff were trained on emergency evacuation procedures, including safe routes and assembly points. Adequate firefighting equipment should be available, and individuals should be trained in its usage.
During the mock drill, practical demonstrations and training sessions were conducted to educate students and staff on disaster preparedness and response techniques. This included hands-on practice of evacuation procedures, various methods to rescue people, first aid simulations, and firefighting equipment demonstrations.
The mock drill at S.D. Adarsh Vidyalaya served as an effective means of enhancing awareness and preparedness for various types of disasters. By equipping students and staff with the necessary knowledge and skills, the school was better prepared to respond to emergencies and ensure the safety and well-being of everyone on campus.
