|
|
I have just had a message from my Director that there will be no college tomorrow. I have friends who teach in different Universities in the Kingdom and they have been told tomorrow is a holiday.
As per the government announcement the public sector workers and students will be given the day off. Some schools will be closed for up too a week.
Are the rest of us teaching in KSA off tomorrow?
Enjoy an extended weekend  |

The director of the Education Department in Jeddah, Abdullah Al-Thaqafi, told Arab News the vacation will be for one day only and the second semester will begin on Monday in accordance with the royal statement.

I learned this when I found a note on my door at 7:05 am while exiting my apartment. A little bittersweet because I would have rather slept later. |
