The move comes barely a day after students at Lenana School were sent home indefinitely following unrest that broke out at the institution during prep time.
In a message sent to parents and guardians, the school’s chief principal confirmed that the decision was reached after disturbances were reported within the school.
"Following last night’s disturbances and unrest during prep time, the Board of Management and the school administration have decided to temporarily send all students home," the message read.
The administration explained that the temporary closure was necessary to create room for investigations and normalisation within the school environment before students can resume learning.
"This will allow time to restore calm and carry out a full assessment of the situation," the message added.
Parents and guardians were instructed to report to the school early Tuesday morning to pick up their children.
"You are therefore requested to collect your son from school at 8:00 a.m. today. Please ensure that every student leaves the school compound only when accompanied by a parent, guardian, or an authorized representative," the message further read.
The school has not yet announced when students will return, saying further communication will be issued once new arrangements are finalized.
"We will communicate the new reporting date and other necessary arrangements in due course. We sincerely regret any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding, cooperation, and continued support," the message concluded.
