Heya!!
Every schoolchild in Japan will be familiar with earthquake drills in which alarms sound and children retreat under their desks to shelter from falling debris.
The drills take place every month, with the children being taught to go head-first under the desk and cling to table legs until the quake is over.

If the children are out in the playground the rush to the centre of any open space to avoid being hit by falling debris.
The local fire department also takes groups of children into earthquake simulation machines to familiarize them with the sensation of being in an earthquake. Schools with two storeys or more have evacuation chutes which children can slide down to safety.

After a quake hits, children are required to stay in school until an adult comes to collect them, in case their homes are damaged or their family members aren’t available to look after them.
As a result television footage from school and offices in Tokyo during Friday’s quake showed workers and students behaving with extraordinary calm and composure as buildings shook violently, sending files tumbling from desks and books from shelves.
After the quake crocodiles of children could be seen in Tokyo walking calmly to muster points wearing their protective helmets.
Many lessons were learned from the Kobe earthquake of 1995 that killed 6,400 people and forced a reassessment of the building regulations for both residential offices and transport infrastructure.
Damage to buildings in Tokyo was slight as a result of Japan’s stringent building regulations that ensure that skyscrapers sway in during a quake, but don’t collapse.
Buildings are made earthquake proof with the aid of deep foundation and massive shock absorbers that dampen seismic energy. Another method allows the base of a building to move semi-independently to its superstructure, reducing the shaking caused by a quake.
Photographs from the Kobe earthquake showed old buildings collapsed alongside modern buildings that withstood the quake, in some cases canted at an angle, but still standing, after the ground beneath them liquefied.
Immediately after an earthquake strikes in Japan, all television and radio stations switch immediately to official earthquake coverage which informs the public of risks, including tsunamis to enable people to retreat to higher ground or, on the coast, purpose-built tsunami defence bunkers.
For those trapped, all offices and many private houses in Japan have an earthquake emergency kits, including dry rations, drinking water, basic medical supplies. Offices and school also keep hard-hats and gloves for use in the event of a quake.
Hope it helps you.
