Storm blows school doors closed

A Krugersdorp school will likely not reopen until next year.
Laerskool Protearif was battered during the massive storm which hit Gauteng on Monday.
Classrooms have been left with no roof.
Heavy downpours, hail and strong winds caused largescale devastation in Gauteng - with Krugersdorp hardest hit.
Jacaranda FM News accompanied Gauteng education MEC, Panyaza Lesufi, on a visit to Laerskool Protearif on Tuesday.
Lesufi visited the school in a bid to assess the damage.
The fourth term, which got underway on Monday, is one of the most critical times on the school calendar.
Lesufi says the children will be accommodated at two schools in the vicinity.
