St Mary’s Primary School will close at noon today.

The Ministry of Educational Transformation says this decision follows the tragic shooting incident near to the school yesterday. Counsellors were mobilised to offer further support for students and staff where it is needed.

The school, which currently houses St Mary’s Primary and a section of the Wesley Hall School, will welcome the students at the usual time, after which they will jointly attend the Ash Wednesday service at James Street Methodist Church, as planned.

Parents and guardians are asked to arrange for the collection of their children at noon. School will reopen on Monday, February 23, 2026 after the mid-term break. (PR/SAT)
