The Saint Lucia Fire Service successfully conducted a fire evacuation drill with the St. Aloysius R.C. Boys' School, as part of Fire Prevention Week which began from the 6th to the 12th of October. The drill aimed to enhance the school's preparedness for emergencies and reinforce safety protocols among students, staff, and administration.👏👨‍🚒

The drill involved a simulated fire scenario, prompting a swift and orderly evacuation of the entire school building. Students and staff followed designated evacuation routes and assembled at the designated assembly point. The Fire Service personnel were on-site to oversee the drill and provide guidance.🚒🚨🧯

An effective evacuation plan is crucial for ensuring the safety of individuals in the event of a fire or other emergencies. By regularly practicing drills and maintaining a well-defined plan, we can significantly reduce the risk of injuries and fatalities.✍️

Please take note and save your life or someone else’s…

If you are going to the Ocean and want to swim in the ocean, please take note of the following:

RIP CURRENT DANGER

Here we see a perfect small-scale version of a rip current!

Arrows 1 and 2 represent the sandbars, which is where you want to be! (This is why we advise swimming parallel to the shore because you will get out of a rip and in most cases onto a sand bar.)

Arrows 3 and 4 represent the feeder current, which is water being drawn into the rip current. If you’re in a feeder current, you are being sucked into the rip!

Arrow 5 represents the rip current! That's where water is being sucked out into the gulf and if you’re in the rip you’re going with it!

Please DO NOT allow children to swim in the ocean without adult supervision.

Have a wonderful time at the Sea, but never forget SAFETY ALWAYS FIRST!!!
