     The Education Bureau announced that classes of all secondary schools in the Wan Chai and Central and Western districts will resume tomorrow (October 6), while classes of kindergartens, primary schools and special schools in the two districts would remain suspended tomorrow.

     The Education Bureau reminded students studying in secondary schools in the Wan Chai and Central and Western districts as well as their parents to get hold of traffic diversion information in advance and leave home early if necessary. They should pay attention to television and radio broadcasts, especially traffic news, before going to school. Schools should exercise flexibility when handling students' lateness or absence due to traffic problems.

     Kindergartens, primary schools and special schools in the Wan Chai and Central and Western districts should remain open and arrange staff to look after any students who might arrive.

     School lists by district are available at the EDB website (www.edb.gov.hk/en/student-parents/sch-info/sch-search/schlist-by-district/index.html).

     The Education Bureau will make further announcements if necessary."
