No injury was reported but the blaze affected a building that houses the reading lab, a storage area for sports gear and a classroom.

Firefighters are still trying to ascertain what led to the blaze.

Principal Winsome Forbes told IRIE FM News yesterday that face-to-face classes would resume today for students in grades three to six, while grades 1 to 2 would be engaged online.

She said full face-to-face classes are expected to resume on Monday, March 3.

In the meantime, Ms. Forbes said Jamaica Day activities, initially scheduled for today, have been postponed until next Tuesday.
