School Closure Advisory: Cyclone Rae Disruptions Continue

The Minister for Education, Hon. Aseri Radrodro, has announced that schools in the Northern Division, Lau Group, and Lomaiviti—excluding Rotuma—will remain closed until further notice due to ongoing disruptions to water, essential services, and risks posed by Cyclone Rae.

Meanwhile, schools in the Western and Central Divisions will remain open, with parents encouraged to use their discretion when deciding whether to send their children to school.

The Minister urges all school heads to maintain close communication with their Management Committees, District, and Divisional Officers for further updates. The Ministry of Education continues to monitor the situation and will provide additional information as needed.

The safety and well-being of students remain the top priority, and this advisory will remain in effect until further notice.
