It is really amazing how quick some of us are to blame someone about everything that happened… I am pleased to report that the student at the hospital is in high spirits and we are continuing to pray for her complete recovery and for the peace of mind of those children who are traumatized. We at the Temple SDA Primary School are indeed that our lives were spared during this accident on Thursday; it could have been a lot worse but thank God for His protective hands and mercies upon us!! May his name continue to be exalted forever!!
im praying for my classmate in grade six classmate i love u guys god blessing upon u guys i was crying when they said is temple sda primary school i am still crying for u all. god is in control
STAY IN SCHOOL! Your grammar is terrible; please use punctuation marks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
SOME OF YOU PEOPLE ARE SO BAD AND NEGATIVE I HOPE YOU ALL GET ALL YOU FATE SOME DAY . TO MY POSITIVE PEEPS LETS KEEP PRAYING FOR SAFETY. WHAT DOES GOVERNMENT HAVE TO DO WITH SOMEONE GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT???? SOME OF YOU ARE REALY LOW TO THE MAX AND CRUEL, BUT GOD KNOWS WHAT HE IS DOING ALL THE TIME AND I THANK HIM FOR BEING A GOD OF LOVE AND PEACE AND PROTECTION. THANK GOD NOTHING SERIOUS HAPPENED TO THESE KIDS AND THEIR DRIVER…

Please watch your spelling before you post a comment.
just saying, stop saying,people write how the taik nothing wrong with that,it is called local creole.there are poetry written in trinidad based on this dialects
there is nothing wrong with the bus and the driver is very careful and responsible, he wasn’t the one in the wrong, how can a truck over take around a corner? the truck driver realize his wrong and he cried bitterly for what happen for he self was concerned about the kids
Is this Danise’s bus
Nope ms ivinia’s bus
ya
Thanx to Jah tht nothing much had happen…..
God’s Pray was with those kidz because if God wasnt with them something esle would hv happened….
God is really in control….
So you praise God for saving the kids from injury. Who do you blame for causing the accident?
praise god from whom all blessings flow !!!!the teachers are praying teachers well wishers pray for them everyday god is in control!!! but the enemy will always try his thing!! but god will always stand up for his own!! thank you lord….

give god thanks for life … take time on the road the life u take might be ur own
the idiots we have driving in dominica yet the government is not doing anything to protect our citizens such shame
are you saying you are an idiot,too? lol…what does government have to do with how idiots like you drive??????? way papa
if they are idiots what can the government really do??
What does your government in your neck of the hoods do??
SMFH
no, the shame is on u. we blame the government for any and every thing that happens.what? u think Skerrit loosened the screws on the tyre to? Oh,no, maybe Mathew Walter dug a pothole. fool!! grow up!! we all make mistakes but we never listen, we always jump and say all sorts of things to bring down our own people when things happen. Just thank God that it wasn’t worse.
no wonder our beautiful country will never reach its peak. we still got negative obstacles like u!!
Grell what stupidiness you talking there. Why we have to make everything in Dominica political. Everything that happen is government. We need to stop this nonsense and everyone looking the mirror then alot of the problems in this country will be taking care off instead of always trying to blame someone else or the governement. People are driving to ridiculous in Domininca right now and everyone has to start looking at themselves. The police cannot be every where and that goes for the whole world, or else the whole world will be crime free. Praise god is not on the west coast road the accident was because we would find some stupid reason to try and blame the chinese. Stop this stupidness in Dominica and start reasoning more sensible
Appearantly you are the only idiot!
I cannot but, more than agree with you Grell
one word….IDIOT
So you are an idiot also?
Well this bus driver is not an idiot because I, as one of the parents, took the bus with them the morning before and he was driving at a regular speed. He always drives with caution.
Everyday we should pray as we never know what can happen. I could have lost my daughter today! Jeez! She is sooo frightened by this although she only travels on the bus every morning.
The school bus driver was not at fault to my understanding so let’s just hope and pray all the students can recover from this. They were all shaken and checked upon by the hospital.
Bruises, etc children falling on one another…ouch I can only imagine what would have gone thru my head. if my daughter was there.
I rejoice with you over your daughter’s safety.
Be blessed.
Thank God for watching over our people! His eyes are still on Dominica. Hope all is doing well physically and emotionally.
I saw this bus this morning coming from bense and told my freind why is this fool driving so fast and reckless isnt he carrying peoples children i wonder what was going on in his mind to be driving so reckless with passengers on board thank god there was no deaths
r u sure is this bus????????
Make sure you are sure before you post negative comments
Thanks god no one get hurt our god is a good, mighty and just god praises to him all the time
Before your loved ones leave the house make sure you give hugs and kisses accompanied by I LOVE YOU. We just never know. Please thank God every day for life and to guide and protect our family. Prayer works.
Well lets hope the one child is not in any serious conditions, thank God that everyone else is ok, so sorry to see that, but God is good.
the law guys should check this bus well.
tires etc….was it in good working condition, status of driver etc..
critical points? dont leave any stone unturn, as we likely do in dominica
I agree to a point that we should check everything, however there do not seems to be any insurance, MOT or licence needed for SOME people to drive, the safety of vehicles on the road is a joke in Dominica. I was in DA recently and it seems that getting to where u want to go is more important than safety, i see people sitting on people, the buses could be full to the brim, the driver still stops and people are expected to move up or rather sit on the person next to them so everyone can fit, and to my horror one of the passengers excuses for such ignorance was as she puts it”everybody want to get to work is not far we going” I had to ask her, if it was on her lap the person was going to sit.
Drivers are driving with their wind screen cracked, tyres smooth as a baby’s bottom and I was told by a friend of mind that the police would not say anything, because when that same policeman want to visit his woman and needs a ride in the night he is happy to travel on his vehicle with smooth tyres, so how then can he caution him in the day about driving a unworthy transport, its madness, yes things are a bit better some of the drivers have their badges, but we all know that until something happens no action will be taken.
This is a BIG LIE. You either imagined that or you were dreaming. Please look again or choose your assciates/friends correctly
you must be a “BLUE MAT LINT” TO SAY SUCH A THING.
SHAME ON YOU
Dear lord keep each and everyone involved in this accident safe….my prayers for all
I hope all the children and driver are safe
LORD, GOD thank you for no Fatalities or serious casualties …people be careful on the roads whether you’re a drive or Pedestrian…exercise caution…PLEASE!!!
Hope all is OK
to god be the glory,great things he has done
amen
i was on the bus too i had a headack for three days
