Fire Evacuation Procedure
In case of a fire all children and staff are to leave the centre immediately.  No one is to remain in the building or re-enter the building after they leave, until it is cleared by the fire department or staff (in case of a false alarm).
⦁    When leaving the building the last staff out should shut

      the outside door behind them.
⦁    All staff and children are to meet at the meeting spot,

     the small evergreen tree on our front lawn, and remain

     there until cleared to re-enter the house or until

     dismissed to their parents.
⦁    Staff must take attendance and be certain all children

     are accounted for.
⦁    9-1-1 is to be called by a staff member if there is a

     or suspected fire.
⦁    If there is a fire and the centre must close, parents are

     to be called to come and get their children.
