A slip has taken out the water supply to a Wellington primary school, forcing it to close.
Te Aro School, located on The Terrace in Wellington’s CBD, sent an email to parents last night saying that because of significant rain over the weekend, the school would have to close on Monday.
“The huge amount of rain we have had in the last couple of days has resulted in a slip on our lower driveway,” the email read.
“We are working to clear the clay and secure the bank, but the slip has also burst a water pipe which has cut off the water supply to our school.”
