抗震保命三步驟，遇震突襲不用愁!

Beep, beep, beep! The alarm sounds! Wagor kids follow instructions from their teachers to stay safe. They practice safety moves like “Drop, Cover, and Hold On” to stay safe during earthquakes. Because the teacher often reminds and shows them what to do, the kids are able to rapidly do what they're told. These regular drills keep things organized and enable everyone to react quickly when there's a real emergency.

台灣地處太平洋環狀地震帶上，每年發生的小型有感地震次數頻繁，國人也習以為常，但當遇到強烈地震時應如何防範，則是一個重要的防災教育議題，對此我國特別訂定每年9月21日為國家防災日，全國各級學校都應在當日上午9:21進行全校性的防災演練，藉以深化國人的防震意識與知能。

在各班老師生活與社會課程指導下，學生不但認識地震所帶來的傷害，同時藉由課程教授，讓學生了解地震時的自我保護要領，並學習當地震來襲的三大要領：趴下(Drop)、掩護(Cover)、穩住(Hold On)的防震動作，以便在發生地震時，可以在最短的時間內，爭取到對自己最有利保護，並避免嚴重的傷害發生。

最後，小學部西屯校區張銀平副校長也提醒小朋友，遇到地震時一定要先保持冷靜，切莫慌亂，才能避免因混亂而造成不必要身體傷害，也要確實記住抗震保命的三個動作，才能讓自己遠離危險的處境。

Taiwan is located in the Pacific Ring of Fire, where small, perceptible earthquakes occur frequently each year. The Taiwanese people have become accustomed to these seismic activities, but it is crucial to know how to prepare for and mitigate the impact of a major earthquake. In response to this concern, Taiwan has designated September 21st as National Disaster Preparedness Day. On this day, all schools across the nation conduct a comprehensive disaster preparedness drill at 9:21 AM to enhance the earthquake awareness and preparedness of the population.

Under the guidance of teachers in their daily life and social studies classes, students not only learn about the potential harm caused by earthquakes but also receive instruction on self-protection measures during earthquakes. They are taught the three essential actions to take during an earthquake: "Drop, Cover, and Hold On." This knowledge enables them to protect themselves most effectively and minimize the risk of severe injury in the event of an earthquake.

Finally, Vice Principal Zhang Yinping of the Xitun campus of the elementary school reminds the children that it is crucial to remain calm
