What's the Plan Stan? is a Ministry of Civil Defence and Emergency Management (MCDEM) initiative for primary schools, featuring Stan the dog and five children who model what to do in an emergency.
Focusing on earthquakes, tsunami, volcanoes, storms, floods and non-natural disasters, the resource has a number of components, each of which can be used independently or in conjunction with each other. These include:
A guide for teachers, including unit plans and activities.
A CD-Rom for teachers and students, including stories, interactive games, research material, tips for teachers and resources that can be cut and pasted into unit plans.
A poster promoting What's the Plan Stan?
More information can be found on the What's the plan Stan? website or by contacting the Christchurch City Council Education Advisor.
Be Turtle Safe is a resource pack promoting earthquake safety and emergency preparedness in Early Childcare Centres. Copies of this resource are available for short-term loan (five weeks) from the Christchurch City Council.
