A fire broke out at Thornwell Primary School, Chepstow, in the early hours of Friday morning 3rd June. It has completely destroyed the Infant building, which included 3 classrooms, the nursery unit and Infant hall.
Monmouthshire County Council are assessing of the situation and it is hoped that the school will be open early next week with Infant pupils being accommodated in the junior building. Further updates will be provided in due course and will be available on the School and County Council websites.
