AN ELLESMERE Port primary school will delay welcoming children back to school because it has no hot water.

Wolverham Primary and Nursery School in Milton Road was all set to welcome children back through its doors tomorrow morning (Tuesday, September 3).

However, the school will now be closed while a new boiler is installed.

The headteacher Tracy Webb tweeted today: "Unfortunately, we have no hot water so we will be CLOSED on Tuesday 3rd September. Contractors have been on site all day trying to fix it but a new boiler is required. Please spread the word."
