SIMULTANEOUS EARTHQUAKE DRILL

The earth’s surface is not exempted from saying,“the only permanent in this world is change”.
Earthquake is the trembling movement of the ground caused by the volcanic shocks of rock masses.
It produces seismic waves which can be detected by an instrument.

Earthquake caused tsunamis or sea waves, collapse of buildings and other properties and
also loss of life, as human being we have to follow precautionary measures before, during and after
earthquake.

Since earthquake occurs frequently in the Philippines, the Department of Education Division
of Cebu Province initiated the program of earthquake drill. In view of this, the Alcantara Central
Elementary School held an earthquake drill last February 21, 2019 at 2:00 in the afternoon, it was
participated by ____pupils from Kindergarten to grade six, 6 teachers and 1 School Head. The
DRRM school coordinator instructed all the pupils of what to do in case of a disaster like an
earthquake. Everybody in their respected classes ducked and covered themselves under their
armchairs and tables. After that, the teachers led their advisory classes heading to the designated
evacuation area. They were group according to their grade level. Then, all the teachers did a
headcount to make sure all pupils are accounted for.The drill was successfully implemented and
