Evacuation Diagrams for Catholic Schools in Western Australia

Catholic primary and secondary schools across the Perth Archdiocese and the regional dioceses have the same obligations under AS 3745-2010 as every other WA school, with their own mix of heritage buildings, parish halls, early learning centres and new learning blocks. CMG has drawn and installed diagrams for Catholic schools for many years.

Catholic school sites

Churches, halls and shared sites need diagrams that match how the campus is actually used

Catholic school campuses often share land with a parish church, hall and presbytery, and many run an early learning centre or outside school hours care on site. Each occupied building needs its own diagrams, oriented to where they hang, and the assembly areas need to work for a school day, a parish event and a weekend sports fixture.

Craig works with the principal, business manager and facilities staff to confirm exits, equipment and assembly areas for each building, then designs, prints and installs the full set. Diagrams are reviewed whenever the site changes, which on a growing Catholic school campus is often.

Interactive self-check

Is your evacuation diagram still compliant?

Six quick checks based on AS 3745-2010 and what Craig sees most often on WA sites.

Does every diagram have a "You Are Here" point that matches where it is mounted?AS 3745-2010 requires the diagram to be oriented to the viewer's position.

Are all current exits and paths of travel shown, with nothing that no longer exists?Blocked, locked or removed doors are the most common failure.

Is the assembly area shown correctly, including any temporary changes?Construction, transportables and new fencing often move it.

Is every extinguisher, hose reel, blanket and alarm point shown where it actually is?Equipment gets relocated during fit-outs and services.

Has the building changed since the diagram was issued?Extensions, new rooms, demountables or a changed use of space.

Is the diagram legible, with a legend, and mounted at the right height?Faded prints and missing legends are non-compliant.

Answer the six checks above

Takes under a minute. We will tell you plainly whether your diagrams are likely to stand up.
