What's The Plan Stan?

We are using the resource 'What's The Plan Stan' to learn all about what to do in an emergency such as an earthquake.
Earthquakes, floods, storms, tsunami, and volcanic eruptions, as well as non-natural hazards such as fires and pandemics, can be frightening because they strike at any time and often without warning. Understanding what causes these hazards and knowing what to do will help you to be better prepared when they happen.
Next week we have a visitor coming to talk about the role of the Civil Defence. His name is Brendan Winter (Queenstown Lakes Civil Defence). We are going to prepare questions to ask at this session and also learn about how to welcome and thank a speaker. We look forwar to meeting our expert on civil defence emergencies.
