Parents and guardians are to decide whether or not to send their children to school in light of a heavy rain warning that is in force for the whole of Fiji.
In a statement, Fiji’s Minister for Education Rosy Akbar advises parents of students living in low lying areas to keep them at home, while those living in unaffected zones are urged to exercise caution when travelling to school.
Teachers who are unable to report to work due to flooding are requested to make arrangements with their respective school heads.
“The safety and well-being of our students and teachers are paramount. Parents and students are advised to follow the weather bulletin for further updates and keep themselves well informed of any weather developments and/or changes.”
