Successful fire drill at École catholique Sainte-Marguerite-Bourgeoys

Un grand merci au Service d'incendie de Merrickville pour leur présence parmi nous cet après-midi ! 🚒🔥

Aujourd'hui, nous avons complété l'une de nos pratiques d'évacuation régulières. La présence de l'équipe des pompiers a apporté une belle valeur ajoutée à l'exercice ! Un grand bravo à nos élèves, qui ont fait preuve d'un calme exemplaire et d'un beau sens des responsabilités tout au long de la pratique. 👏✨

Merci au service d'incendie d'être venu enrichir cette expérience et d'être présent aux côtés de notre communauté scolaire !
