Classes at the Coleridge and Parry School were suspended at lunchtime Wednesday due to a burst water main.

The Barbados Water Authority responded and is currently working to address the issue.

Due to the unavailability of water at the school plant, students were dismissed for the remainder of the day. There will be a further update on resumption of classes once the Ministry of Education has been advised by the Barbados Water Authority.  (PR/SAT)
