Impact of Storm Sula on Sheung Shui Primary School: Fewer Cross-border Students, Postponed Opening, and Clean-up Efforts

Some cross-border students said that they passed the customs quickly. The principal of Sheung Shui Primary School said that there were fewer cross-border students than last year.

Affected by the storm “Sula”, the opening of primary and secondary schools has been postponed until today. Among them, in a primary school in Sheung Shui, students have already returned to school at 7:30 in the morning.

A cross-border student who was promoted to primary six said that it took about 10 minutes to get up at 5 o’clock this morning and pass through Futian Port. He said that the wind did not affect his mood, and he thought that it would be better to have a two-day vacation instead of one day of class, so that he could have more time to prepare for the start of school. Some local students who were promoted to primary one said that they were unable to go to school due to the typhoon last Friday, which affected their mood and they were full of expectations for the new school year.

Principal Zhu Weilin said that due to the impact of the storm, some trees in the school were blown off, and the front garden, backyard, parking lot and school corridors were covered with leaves and branches. The school started to clean up yesterday, and some branches and leaves have been cleared, and sufficient preparations have been made in advance so that students can start school smoothly.

Zhu Weilin also said that this year about 20% of the school’s students are cross-border students, the number is less than last year, because some students choose to study in Shenzhen, and the number of “double non” and “single non” students is lower than in previous years.
