The incident happened in Alveringem in West Flanders on 10 October. Mayor Gerard Liefooghe takes up the story: “The children have to be in school by 9AM. But the driver failed to check the school bus properly when he left the children at school at the start of the school day. It was only in the evening that he discovered a girl still on the bus. She told him she still needed to get to school”.
The girl spent seven hours locked up on the bus without anybody noticing her absence. Her absence was noticed in class either.
Fortunately the child doesn’t seem to have suffered any ill effects from her ordeal. When she travelled to school the following day, she pointedly told the driver he had to take her to school today.
