Fire-ravaged St George’s High School to be rebuilt at same location – Manickchand

The burnt-out St. George’s High School

Minister of Education Priya Manickchand says that the St George’s High School which was destroyed by fire in July this year is to be rebuilt at the same location.

Manickchand said that the ministry had preferred to find a larger plot of land but acknowledged that it is difficult to find such in Georgetown.

“We are looking at the same location, while we had preferred to find a really nice place that has large areas to play and do other things, finding land in Georgetown is really hard, it’s almost impossible to find large spaces of land. What we realise is that we really need schools where children can access because of where they live without too much expense”, she said.
