I agree 100%. It is very unprofessional and unfair. Other arrangements need to be made

We didn't strike, yet our very well deserved recess is being taken away due to a few troublemakers. It's not fair and we very much need this recess to catch up on studying since lecturers decided to place ALL the tests when the recess ends.

Give us our holiday, we deserve it. My dad is coming back from the United States and I haven't seen him for four months

This is rubbish. People who conduct these strikes don't realize the long term implications it has on themselves and others. They need to open their eyes and grow up

I've bought a ticket in advance to visit my family in Namibia. This is a great inconvenience.

Please understand that I have bought bus tickets to go home, I cannot get that money back nor can I simply lose it! I need this break to just take a breather but also to work on assignments and study

It is unacceptable to cancel our recess a week before the time, especially for students who had bought plane tickets to go home.
