Odour still at Grazettes

Share post:

More than a month after a fogging programme caused problems at Grazettes Primary School, complaints of the bothersome smell are persisting.

Because of this, the school’s close to 300 students will continue to attend classes in two Seventh-Day Adventist churches for at least another week.

Principal Etwyn Bynoe and a number of teachers yesterday visited the Grazettes Primary building, where a long-running cleaning programme was continuing.

Well-placed sources reported that some teachers complained of a lingering smell on the ground floor of the chemicals used in the fogging, even though the principal’s office was given a clean bill of health.

President of the Barbados Union of Teachers, Pedro Shepherd, told the SATURDAY SUN the union would be visiting Grazettes Primary next week “to conduct our own assessment of conditions there”. (TY)
