Precious Manomano-Herald Reporter

Pupils from Tynwald High School who survived the Nyanga accident are recovering well and all have now been released from hospital, while two teachers still in hospital have been moved out of the intensive care unit.

Six learners died while several others were injured two weeks ago when the bus overturned at the 75km peg along the Rusape-Nyanga Road. The accident left 39 schoolchildren and teachers injured.

Tynwald Schools board of governors chairperson Ms Florence Mabungu said only two teachers are still receiving treatment at a local hospital in Harare.

They were in stable condition and had been transferred from the intensive care unit to general wards.

Lessons resumed at the school on Monday this week after a one week break used for counselling pupils.

“All children were discharged, they are at home. Only two teachers are still in hospital but they are recovering as well. Children are also receiving psychological counselling so that they cope well with the situation,” she said.

The deceased Anesuishe Hove (14), Beyonce Guyo (15), Anita Manyuka (16), Destiny Dziva (14), Kimberly Tarisai Mutusva (15) (all female) and Craig Madanhire (14) were buried at Glen Forest Memorial Park in Harare.
