Dear Students and Colleagues,
Joint Fire Drill with Hong Kong Fire Services Department at Madam Kwok Chung Bo Fun Sports and Cultural Centre, Li Promenade and Joint Sports Centre
We would like to inform you that we are collaborating with the Hong Kong Fire Services Department (FSD) to conduct a fire drill on our campus on 22 July 2024 (Monday).
The joint fire drill aims to provide valuable training opportunities for FSD and our staff to review the campus emergency response capabilities. The FSD will use Madam Kwok Chung Bo Fun Sports and Cultural Centre, Li Promenade and Joint Sports Centre as training grounds to simulate rescue scenarios, such as rescue operation at high level with hydraulic platform, large-scale evacuation in assembly hall, searching and rescuing victims. Details of the fire drill are as follows:
Date | : | 22 July 2024 (Monday) |
Time | : | 9:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m. |
Duration | : | Approximately 3 hours |
Affected Area | : | Madam Kwok Chung Bo Fun Sports and Cultural Centre (SCC), Li Promenade and Joint Sports Centre (JSC) |
Fire engines will arrive and park at JSC. Affected areas will be fenced off to ensure the safety of all participants. During the fire drill, please keep away from the affected areas and pay attention to the following:
1. Fire ladder will be used along Li Promenade by firemen;
2. Up and down of fire ladder may be seen from the windows of offices or campus facilities located near Li Promenade during the drill; and
3. Fire alarm signal at SCC will be activated during the fire drill to test the responsiveness of our campus alarm system.
For further enquiries, please contact the Health and Safety Unit of our Office on 3411 7997 or by email at shs@hkbu.edu.hk.
