Schools in Malaga that do not suffer damage will be able to resume classes this Friday, if there are no more alerts. The president of the Junta de Andalucía, Juanma Moreno, assured that “if everything goes well”, schools in the province of Malaga Classes will resume this Friday which were suspended for two days due to the effects of heavy torrential rains since Wednesday. Speaking to journalists in Benamargosa, one of the municipalities of Malaga most affected by DANA, Moreno clarified that they are “quantifying the damage, because access is difficult or some classrooms have been flooded of water and must then be cleaned and emptied.
“We will return to normalcy in education if we can, but as long as there is security guarantees for boys and girls and, of course, for parents,” said the Andalusian president, who said he was aware that fathers and mothers had been asked to “make an effort” by suspending classes.
Thus, he recalled that “in the provinces of Malaga, Granada, Seville, Huelva, Cádiz, we are talking about more than half a million schoolchildren, as well as university students, who They couldn’t go to class“, which, he said, “I know, generated many problems, many families who had nowhere to leave their children.”
“I ask you to be understandable”said Moreno, who assured that “we do it to prevent, we must avoid traveling, especially when it starts to rain and they go to pick up the children, which is very dangerous.” “Prevention is better than reconstruction, prevention is better than cure,” he reiterated.
This is why he insisted that parents “be understandable”. “I know the complaints of some parents in certain circumstances because it is true that in certain areas it does not rain, but we did it precisely to avoid, for example protect your children and protect them too,” he concluded.
