Fire drills are practiced at different times of the day each time and all individuals within the premises must participate.

Fun station daycare center will ensure that the telephone number for an after-hours emergency program contact is posted in a place that is visible from the outside of the program premises. This Emergency Evacuation policy is included in the parent and staff handbooks and posted at every exit in the program. Staff verbally articulate this policy to children, who come to learn it well through monthly drills.
