Fire Safety Awareness Day

On Monday, 11th March 2013, The students of Kinderland SPK 1 had a Fire Safety Awareness Day during which they were given a briefing on fire safety. Through the briefing, the children learned what precautions they should take in order to minimise the likelihood of a fire happening as well as how to face different types of fires and what to do when they are in one.


Among the fire safety policies that the children were taught include:

1. Taking note of fire exits when they go somewhere and maintaining clear exits in homes.
2. Complying with electrical safety codes; i.e: one electrical item to a plug, use of extensions only for small electrical items to avoid overloading wiring.
3. Placing and maintaining proper fire extinguishers.
4. Maintaining a fire alarm system to detect fire at early stages.
5. Prohibiting flammable materials in certain areas of the home such as near stoves and electrical power points.


The children were also taught what to do in case of a fire and how to put one out.

So what should you really do in case of a fire?

Here's what!

Always practice safety at home and we hope this info helps!
