Monday and Tuesday, 28th and 29th March – Fire and Lockdown Practices
Every term in school we have a fire alarm practice so that they children and staff know how to safely leave the building if they hear the Fire Alarm. We also have a lockdown practice so they know how to stay safe if they hear the Lockdown Alarm. For children with additional sensory needs, who might be distress by the alarm, we make sure they are aware of the practice and provide ear defenders if needed.
