Teachers and students of Wilkie Cumberbatch Primary School have gathered in the front yard of the school as bees continue to swarm around the institution.

Reports indicate that both teachers and students were stung yesterday and again this morning.

The school was closed last week due to the same issue, but sources say that the hive, which is close by, has yet to be removed.

As a precaution, parents have been asked to collect their children from the school at 11 a.m. today. (MB)
