What happened to Success Academy, probably the smallest school on island and they had to get tested as per government notice on Thursday October 7th and they are still not back in school .Can someone please tell us what is going on. They should have been back a week ago. All the schools that tested at that same time have been back. Not happy.
And wat happened to Prospect Primary??
Harrington Sound opened up this week..lovely to see the children back but…the trenching on Harrington Sound Rd prevents traffic going to Flatts. The horrendous flow of traffic needs urgent review. Parked cars on the side of a very narrow Harrington Hundreds hill while the other lane is a confusion of traffic trying to go both ways. This morning my husband was knocked into the bush and the driver kept going..if that had been a child walking to school it could have been disastrous
Why did Government schools open weeks after private schools?
Despite all the Department of Education resources, they couldn’t organize a booze up in a bar.
Truly pathetic, no wonder our schools are failing.
