The cost of damaged is estimated at around $90,000.

Chand says they do not want students to miss their classes and they will make arrangements with other nearby schools.

“Some of the students will be relocated to nearby schools from here. And those students travelling from an outer distance, we will let them use their nearby schools currently until a solution is found. We also get a hall here which is a second option that we will look into.”

Vuci Methodist School Assistant Head Teacher, Rajen Singh is reminding parents and guardians to not let their children stay at home since school will operate normally.

The classroom block that was destroyed was for class four, six and seven students.
