PUPILS at a fire-ravaged Huddersfield school will be back on site in temporary classrooms after the half-term holiday.
Greenside Infant and Nursery School, Almondbury, was gutted by a fire in September.
Since then the 120 three- to seven-year-olds have been taught in the Early Years Unit at Lowerhouses Junior and Infant School.
Now temporary classrooms have now been sited in the grounds of Greenside Infant and Nursery in Fernside Avenue - and they will be open to pupils when they return from half term holiday on Monday.
Mrs Sue Lord, media manager for Kirklees Education Service, said: "The classrooms are being fitted out with the heating and plumbing and we are getting a climbing frame in the playground.
"They will not be luxurious but they will be fine."
Plans are still being finalised for the rebuilding of the burned-out school.
Mrs Lord said large sections of it would have to be reconstructed but parts of the existing structure could be salvaged.
"We are not going to knock it all down," she said. "There are parts that can be used. We are still working on the plans."
Greenside Infant and Nursery is maintained under the Public Private Partnership with support services firm Jarvis.
"Because it is part of the PPP it should not cost us too much," added Mrs Lord.
