Schools suspended on Friday due to Yagi
The Education Bureau announced that classes at all day schools would be suspended on Friday due to Super Typhoon Yagi. "Considering the latest development and the HKO's forecast of the tropical cyclone, the Education Bureau announces that classes of all day schools, including secondary schools, primary schools, special schools, kindergartens, and kindergartens and child care centres, will remain suspended tomorrow in order to ensure students' safety," the bureau said in a statement. It said classes of all day schools were suspended on Thursday when the Observatory issued its Pre-No. 8 Special Announcement in the afternoon and classes of night schools would be suspended in the evening. The bureau said it would make an announcement later on whether classes of evening schools would remain suspended on Friday, depending on the development of the storm.
