Fire at Salvation Army School for the Blind
More than 100 visually impaired students will have to spend another two 
weeks at home following the Easter break, after a fire did extensive damage 
to a kitchen at their school on Thursday morning.

The early morning fire at the Salvation Army School, the only educational 
institution catering exclusively to visually impaired students, resulted in 
the loss of appliances and products.

Captain Edward Lyons, administrator at the school, told RJR News the fire 
broke out just before five o'clock Thursday morning.

"There were three refrigerators that were burnt; one I know is worth about a 
quarter of a million dollars, a big stainless steel fridge that stores the 
meat supplies,"

"When we looked further we realized that there was more damage, all the 
shelves were totally burnt, all the supplies that were purchased to start 
this new school term were also burnt we are looking at a possible $5 million 
to restore the kitchen so that school may begin again," Captain Lyons said.
