Gloucestershire school and leisure centres close after flooding
Churchdown School said on social media that it was “with regret” it had to close.
The school will conduct an electrical survey to assess the damage, before being able to open again safely.
It added it was due to “significant” water damage, caused by a flash flood on Friday night.
“We apologise for any inconvenience caused as a result of this unforeseen and extreme event. We have made this decision now in order to provide you with as much notice as possible to make alternative arrangements,” the school posted.
Leisure At Cheltenham has posted on Facebook that it had to stay closed on Saturday due to weather-related damage.
“We apologise for any inconvenience caused and thank you for your patience,” the leisure centre added.
Fundamental Movement Academy, another leisure centre in Cheltenham, has also had to stay closed on Saturday due to damage caused by flooding.
On Facebook, the centre posted: “We will be giving you updates as much as we can whilst trying our best to get everything clean and ready for our re-opening.”
