Makati BFP conducts fire drill at APS in Rockwell

APS, Rockwell, Makati City.  January 19, 2013 9:00 am

                               Smoke filled fire drill

The Makati BFP today conducted a fire drill at Ateneo Professional School in Rockwell.  The fire drilll started right after the 9:00 bell;  I got the inkling of the drill when I saw some AGSB office staff wearing reflectorized vest.  Thus:   I got some instructions to the class:  who will lead, the evacuation team leader what to do.

We were the first group to get out of the building.  Dr. Abel and I volunteered for the fire extinguisher use on firefighting a gasoline fire.

The class was delayed for 30 minutes.  We were able to finish though what we planned to do for the day.
