Elland school to reopen after emergency closure due to lack of running water
An Elland school closed and homes had no water due to a burst water main yesterday. (Monday).
Homes in HX5 experienced no water or low pressure for a large part of the day after a burst pipe was reported outside Morrisons in Elland.
The Brooksbank School had to close and send its pupils home at lunchtime.
The school on Victoria Road is now open as usual today (Tuesday).
The Brooksbank School said: “Thank you for your patience and understanding in what was an unavoidable situation that left the school with no option but to close due to no running water.
"Students were brilliant and responded well to the sudden change of logistics and expectations.”
