Evacuation and Lockdown Procedures

Evacuation Procedure

An alarm will ring continuously, remaining at one constant pitch and level.

In the event of an evacuation as a result of fire, flood, explosion, natural gas leak, chemical spill, or bomb threat, staff will supervise students moving to the Muster Area.

Once assembled, rolls will be marked in year groups. Students are to remain on the oval until given direction by staff.

The Muster Areas are: All Saints Campus- Watson (main) Oval; Scots Campus – Main Oval.

Lockdown Procedure

An alarm will ring and the pitch will be up and down in a siren sound.

In the event of a lockdown as a result of a threat outside of the school buildings, all students must remain in a secure room or area until the all clear is given.

Rolls will be taken by staff. If students are outside of classrooms at the time of a lockdown they should move to the nearest room.

Doors and windows will be locked, including any corridors.

Lights will be turned off and, where possible curtains and/or blinds will be drawn.
