CRISIS CONTROL & DISASTER MANAGEMENT

A special start of acquainting us young ladies about safety in different areas. “Think of disaster, before it occurs” was the mantra of this fantastic workshop we had over a period of 2 days. As women of tomorrow we have to be ready for anything and with this in mind, we folded our sleeves and got to work learning from the fantastic coach Mr. Srikumar Sikkari. This programme included theory as well as practical exercises. We operated fire extinguishers to put out different types of fire. We participated in operating the school fire engine and got to understand its capabilities. We learnt and practiced methods of rescue and recovery in case of fire accident / incident. We were certified as “DRR”s (Disaster Recovery Representatives) which added another feather to our cap.
