Hello, everyone! Welcome to the Datong News Beat! We've got some important news to share with you today. It's September 13th, 2024, and at exactly 9:21 this morning, our school held a 921 Earthquake Drill. The goal of the drill was to make sure that if we ever experience an earthquake, we know how to stay calm and protect ourselves.


Students, you all did an amazing job today! Right when the drill started, everyone quickly followed the teachers’ instructions—no pushing, no messing around. Everyone got down low and covered their heads just like they were supposed to. When it was safe, you all lined up and walked to the athletic field in an orderly manner. Nobody ran, and that made everything go so smoothly. I really think our students are excellent role models!

This drill showed us that when we’re faced with dangerous situations like an earthquake, it’s important to stay calm and follow directions. That’s how we can keep ourselves and those around us safe. And don’t forget the key steps when an earthquake hits: “Drop, Cover, and Hold On.” When the ground starts shaking, drop down, find something sturdy to cover yourself, and hold on until it’s safe to move.

Alright, that’s it for today’s news! Thanks for tuning in to the Datong News Beat. See you next time! And remember, safety first!
