Emergency Procedures
The Centre has emergency and evacuation procedures in place.
If we are asked to evacuate the building for any reason there are emergency supplies available if needed. Our supplies include a comfort pack for each child and we ask for your help in providing items for the pack.
Please include the following items in a large zip-lock bag clearly labelled with your child’s name:
· A family photo
· A comfort note
· A small toy & colouring book with crayons
· A small package of wet wipes.
· A small stuffed animal
· A working flashlight [for children over 3 years]
If we are required to evacuate the building, the initial assembly area is beside the campus receiving department and then on the north west corner of Glen Drive and 8th avenue
The staff hold current first aid certificates and will treat for minor first aid needs. If there is a need to seek other medical attention the staff will take the necessary action.
Staff will contact the parent if the evacuation is expected to last more than 30 minutes as there is a possibility the children could be relocated to the Mount Pleasant Child Care Centre at 960 East 7th avenue .
