Teachers and some students returned to a Brazilian school in Sao Paulo yesterday, less than a week after two armed men raided it, killing seven people and injuring nine others.
Staff members gathered to discuss when classes should resume, while students were invited to pick up any belongings left behind while running for their lives.
A multitude of flowers and messages lay on the ground outside the entrance gate in homage to victims and survivors. Students could be seen hugging as they met outside.
A total of 10 people died as a result of Wednesday's shooting, including five students, a teacher, a school administrator and the two killers, who took their own lives.
