Christ Church Secondary School will be closed for the remainder of the week after a chemical release resulting in combustion occurred in the school’s Science laboratory.
The Guyana Fire and Rescue Service rushed to the school around 4:30 pm yesterday after receiving information that smoke was emanating from the building. According to the Chief Fire Officer, Gregory Wickham, although initially believing it was a fire, investigations found that several chemicals being stored in the Science laboratory were released and caused a combustion.
