Tynwald High School To Reopen On Monday
Tynwald High School in Harare is set to reopen for lessons on Monday after a week-long mourning period.
The school head, Kenias Matimba, told H-Metro that learners have gone through counselling sessions.
This comes after the school bus was involved in an accident during a trip to Nyanga on Friday last week.
The accident claimed the lives of six pupils and left 34 others, including members of staff, injured.
Tynwald High School asked non-exam classes to remain at home this week, as part of the healing process, in the aftermath of the tragedy.
Matimba said he visited five students, and three staff members, who are still admitted at a local hospital. He said:
Children and staff members admitted to the hospital are responding well to treatment. We wish them a speedy recovery.
School is to reopen for lessons on Monday.
The reopening will see some counsellors we have engaged conducting sessions with children.
The counsellors will start with the grieving families.
We want to thank those standing with us in our time of grief.
