Russey School up and running again

Aaron Campbell from Aaron Campbell - Fendalton-Waimairi-Harewood Board

"Russley School is expected to reopen on Wednesday after four classrooms were destroyed in a fire last week and asbestos was later discovered.
The Cutts Rd blaze broke out at around 7.10am on September 17 and spread to teaching rooms that catered for about 120 year 7-8 pupils.
Once the fire was extinguished, safety officials found evidence of asbestos and the site remained closed."
