Yesterday was the last day for kids to be home for the summer holidays. Their holidays sure ended well with a huge blast from Mother Nature in our state.
During their last week of their school holidays a monsoon trough (caused from ex-TC Oswald) travelled down all of QLD coast. Most areas experienced cyclonic conditions to heavy rainfall, storms and gusty winds for days. Of course this caused flooding and unfortunately some residents in our state had to experience floodwaters again. They only just got back on the feet from the tloods in 2011.
All State Schools in Queensland supposely resume back to school for a new year of learning today but well over 220 schools aren't opened because of the floodwaters or no power restored still. My 12 yo daughter supposely started her first day of high school today but we weren't aware there was no school due to no power. This school wasn't even listed on TV or the education department website. It wasn't until I arrived in the carpark one of the teachers announced there is no school due to no power!!
At this stage no one really knows when school will resume in this area. It doesn't make any sense. Some areas in Logan have power while others don't. Does the electricity company even know alot of areas don't have power? DId the residents contact them to say there is no power where they live?
