HELP US TO REBUILD COMMUNITY SCHOOLS!
In Dujiangyan, the city that neighbors the epicenter of Wenchuan county, Szechwan, 1,000 children of Juyuan Middle School were feared buried in the quake. By Wednesday only one girl has been recovered alive. A tearful mother said her son, third-grader Zhang Chengwei, was buried in the ruins. "Some had jumped out of the window and a few ran down the stairs that did not collapse."
Two girls said they escaped because they had "run faster than others." Grieving parents watched on as five cranes were excavating at the site and ambulances stood waiting.
At least 200 school children were buried when two schools affiliated to a steam turbine factory in Hanwang Township of Mianzhu, 30 kilometers to the epicenter Wenchuan, toppled in the quake.
Several other schools have collapsed in Deyang City and Aba Prefecture, near the epicenter. An exact head count of casualties is not immediately available. Five primary school children were confirmed dead and more than 100 were injured when two schools toppled in Liangping County.
More than 1,000 students and teachers were dead or missing when the main building of Beichuan Middle School in Mianyang City collapsed. Beichuan is 160 kilometers northeast of the Wenchuan epicentre.
