We understand and trust that Justice must prevail for our daughter and as we await this, we are making a passionate appeal on behalf of our children who in addition to coping with the grief of losing a school mate individually and collectively, have also had their education affected and have been at home for over 7 weeks and 4 days now.
We appeal to the ‘parent heart’ of our dear Governor, Sir, that the school be reopened to enable our children catch up on the term’s activities and prepare for all forthcoming exams. In addition, sir, we as concerned parents commit to work with the school to ensure total adherence to all the safety standards of the state,”.
