I was talking about this today with my daughter, Mary, who lives in Oliver. It's very upsetting for the town. They don't know where the students will go now. I hope they work something out soon. It's always sad to lose an old historic building like that.
Hello Michael and Hanne
What a sad story and what a reminder of the destructive power of fire (and flood).
Thanks for visiting and leaving such a lovely comment.

How frustrating/upsetting! Do they suspect arson or was it accidental?
I hope the staff and students are sorted soon. This is going to disrupt their education somewhat.
How sad. Oddly enough, the local news here today is dominated about a school in Bradford which burnt down last night. There is a great spate of building new schools over here but I suspect the renewal is that of framework rather than content.
