The games was initially planned for May 2nd-4th, but the HFC Bank Stadium was already pre-booked for the Drua vs Hurricanes game.
The facility is needed at least sevens days before to prepare for the game.
Minister for Education Aseri Radrodro in a statement says that upon consultations with the Fiji Sports Council, representatives from the participating schools, Zone Meet managers and the organizers, they have collectively agreed to have the Fiji Finals on these revised dates.
These confirmed dates fall in week 12 of the school term.
The statement goes on to say that the Sports Council has assured all in writing that the stadium facilities are available on these dates to accommodate the Fiji Finals.
Radrodro is urging all heads of participating schools to review their school program planned towards the end of the term and accommodate this change in date.
He also reminded all heads of participating schools that the duty of care for students remain paramount in all the zone meets and during the games.
