An elementary school in Gold River, B.C., was shut down for two days this week due to health concerns.

On Tuesday, students were suddenly dismissed from Ray Watkins Elementary School after some staff and students experienced itchiness, redness and welts, the school said in a statement.

The Gold River Health Clinic recommended that families wash clothes that were worn Tuesday and clean bedroom surfaces. On Wednesday morning, school administrators said the school would be closed for one more day "out of an abundance of caution" based on Island Health recommendations.
