Silver buckets are for water only, not sand
Do not wash hands in water pump, use bucket of water (then rinse) and pour water into sand NOT river bed

Redirect kids from digging next to broken stumps
One person pumping at a time, line goes behind. This is to avoid children falling off the rock

Shelter in place: Stay inside and lock doors, Danger nearby but not imminent. If you are outside come inside.
Lockdown: Use whistle to signify "something important is happening" and children need to run to teacher to go inside. Make sure magnet is pulled and door is locked - depends if threat is lobbyside or outside
