Parents and pupils said they were pleased to be back at the home of Grazettes Primary School at the start of the new term yesterday.

Students returned to the Ealing Road, St Michael premises following their temporary relocation to two nearby Seventh-day Adventist churches for most of last term on environmental grounds.

Minister of Education Ronald Jones said he was pleased with the start and thanked the Ministry of Labour, the churches and the project unit in the ministry, who worked cooperatively to ensure that the environment was made clean for the return of the students.

Crystal Wiggins, parent of three children at the school, said she was happy to have them all back together because getting them to two different locations was a daily hassle.
