Should students be allowed to stay of school in hot weather like this?

i have air conditioning in my school.

In my local paper today it said pupils were allowed to go home because of the "extreme" weather. Apparently hottest July on record.

Yes, we should stay in school. as long as teachers open windows, have fans ect ect. Besides its still hot at home.

It's not just people who get heat stroke though, some kids might have something wrong with their heart, it was advised that people with heart problems aswell as the elderly should stay indoors, because the heat could kill people. Was said in a newspaper.

We should be able to take extra clothes in our bags with us, just incase it becomes hot, then be able to change into them if it gets boiling. (Shorts, vests, t-shirts, etc)

In Australia if its over 40 degrees we have to go home usually its 38 in summer everyday.I sleep infront of the air conditioner.

I suggest drinking water or juice boxes/prima's that have been frozen. Swimming is also good.

I think we should go in in the morning and then go home in the afternoon. Its horrid wearing shirts coz sweat shows ugh, and only 2 rooms are air conned.
