Over 400 School & Uni Campuses Are Now Set To Close In NSW Tomorrow Due To Fires

The on-going and worsening NSW bushfires crisis is set to hit its worst point tomorrow, where forecast weather conditions have put huge stretches of the state – including the entire greater Sydney region – on “catastrophic” alert.

While Monday saw swathes of schools closed due to smoke and fire activity in the area – caused by a string of fires that have killed three people and torn through well in excess of 150 homes – the conditions forecast for Tuesday are so severe that around 300 schools are being ordered to close by Education Department and NSW Catholic Schools officials.

This has since grown to include private schools and a string of TAFE and University campuses across the state as well.

The Education Department, along with the NSW Catholic Schools board, has this afternoon published a list of schools that will be temporarily non-operational tomorrow.

Check with your local authorities if your school does not appear on the list below.

The list is subject to change, and more schools could be added as conditions are further monitored and assessed.

The NSW Education Department website has all up-to-date information published on their website. Stay safe out there tomorrow, mates.
