Cornwall College relocated classes from a classroom that experienced significant roof leakage on Tuesday amid the current period of heavy rainfall.

In a statement, the St James-based school said the classroom had sustained damage during Hurricane Melissa last year, resulting in the roof problems now being experienced.

Principal Michael Ellis said all classes scheduled for the affected room have been moved to the school's auditorium while temporary adjustments are made to the roof.
