Fire hits Welsh comprehensive school

The technology block of a school in Wales has been badly damaged by fire. Six appliances from Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue service attended the blaze just before 11.00 pm on 5 November at the Coedcae comprehensive school in Llanelli.

Around 30% of the building and roof void of the 60m x 20m building was severely damaged by the fire, and the rest of it was damaged by smoke.

Fire crews had to briefly withdraw from the fire at one stage due to the presence of acetylene cylinders. Ten breathing apparatus, two main jets, a hose reel jet as well as a water bowser were used.

A joint fire service and police investigation is currently underway to identify the cause of the fire.

The school did not expect any significant disruption to pupils, with lessons being relocated to other parts of the school.
