A mock drill for earthquake was held on January 31, 2018 at 10.15 am for the Morning session and at 1.40 pm for the Afternoon session. A gong was rung continuously for one minute. At the sounding of the gong, staff members and students dropped to the floor, wherever possible, or bent over their desks, covering their face and head with their arms. When the gong stopped, the process of evacuation started following the evacuation routes. The evacuation took 8 minutes 27 seconds in the morning and 6 minutes 50 seconds in the afternoon. Everyone assembled in Assembly Area 2, which is the backyard of the school. The teachers carried attendance registers with them during the evacuation and a roll call was taken after the evacuation. Members of the Emergency Response Team helped in the evacuation. However, as per the norms of evacuation for earthquake, the occupants of the Ground Floor and First Floor stayed in their respective rooms. The principal, Ms D. K.
