External exams are to be shifted to later date once cyclone is confirmed to hit Fiji

The external exams will be shifted to a later date once the cyclone is confirmed by the Nadi Weather Office.

Minister of Education, Aseri Radrodro is also reminding all school management, especially boarding schools to ensure the safety of their students and the facilities.

He urges all parents and guardians to exercise all precautions in ensuring that they are aware of where their children are and also keep them indoors, warm, safe and occupied to ensure they don't fall prey to falling debris or play and cross flooded rivers and creeks where lives can be lost unnecessarily.

The Minister says schools need to be used as evacuation centres and he trusts that school managers will work with the relevant authorities to provide the best we can for our people and he thanks them in advance. He is sending his well wishes to all our school children, parents and guardians and to our communities to stay calm, and protected and to continue to pray for our nation and our safety.
