The Ministry of Education said that it was brought to its attention that sessions were disrupted at the Stella Maris Nursery and Primary Schools earlier today after a swarm of bees from a nest outside the schools’ compound entered the buildings.
The Ministry said it wished to inform parents and guardians of Stella Maris Nursery and Primary that all necessary precautions have been taken and the bees nest has been removed. The area has also been cleared.
Further checks will be conducted tomorrow to ensure the health and safety of the children and staff of the schools.
