Evacuation drill at Agora completed successfully

18 May 2026

On Monday, 18 May 2026, an evacuation drill took place in the Agora building. At 3:01 PM, the fire alarm was activated via a manual call point. The reported incident concerned a simulated electrical fire in the pantry of the Bamboo Lounge on the third floor. As a result, the entire building was evacuated.

The purpose of the drill was to evacuate the building safely and efficiently. Around 3:20 PM, staff and students were able to re-enter the building.

Thanks to everyone’s quick response and cooperation, the evacuation proceeded smoothly and in an orderly manner. We would like to thank all staff and students for their commitment and cooperation during this exercise.
