Coming up -Lock Down Drill

Notification for Years 7 to 9

All government schools are required to develop and implement safety procedures and practice a range of drills throughout the year. The goals of these drills are to improve our ability to respond to events to protect students. These practice drills allow us to evaluate our emergency operation plans and improve our response skills.

On Tuesday December 9th Students will practice the Codes Yellow and Orange aspects of our Lock Down Drill. The following week Code Red will be practiced at a non nominated time. Our Lock Down drill has three levels of response that escalate in line with the posed threat – Code Yellow requires students to be inside the school grounds, Code Orange requires students to be inside a building and Code Red to inside a classroom and out of sight as much as practicable.
