The Western Cape Education Department said that it is looking forward to welcoming pupils back to school on Tuesday for the start of the third term.

The department confirmed that all schools in the province are to officially open on Tuesday after consulting with the South African Weather Service and the Provincial Disaster Management Committee.

This was after 29 schools in the province reported weather-related damages.

“While the weather conditions will improve for the reopening of schools, particularly the wind conditions, it is envisaged that it will still be a dark and wet start to the school term. Raincoats, umbrellas and reflective gear is encouraged, and even possible change of clothes. Parents and learners are to please exercise caution on the roads.”
