Three primary school students were injured Friday morning when plaster peeled off from a school ceiling in an Athens neighborhood and fell on the young students.
It all happened at Petralona Primary School 149 in Athens, during the second break. Suddenly, a large piece of plaster fell from the ceiling of the front landing on the top floor and landed on the children. Fifth and sixth grade students suffered minor injuries, media reported.
The incident occurred in an area several kilometers south of the city center during the first week of the new school year. The school management informed the parents of the injured and shocked students, who came to the school and picked up their children.
“We received a notice from the school to go and pick up the children,” parents told the news site newsit.gr. – When we arrived, riots began among children, parents and teachers. One child went to a children’s clinic as a precaution, the other two went to municipal clinics. The small children who saw the incident were scared.” Some parents seriously considered changing schools after the incident.
BTW Primary School in Athens’ Pangrati district is still not open due to renovation and painting work. A week after the start of the school year. Please note that municipalities do not have ownership rights to school buildings.
