Schools relocated due to flooding

JAMBI, Jambi: Jambi schools relocated classes on Thursday at
several schools here due to prolonged flooding. In Sijenjang
subdistrict, East Jambi district, over 300 students had to study
in nearby buildings of Elementary School 180 on Thursday after
their school buildings were inundated by water in the past week.

Eprin Eri, the school principal, said that the lessons had to
continue despite flooding as the students would face their final
exams in the near future. Earlier, Jambi Mayor Arifin Manaf had
given the green light for school authorities to suspend classes
due to flooding. -- JP
