It was the first trip after two years of the pandemic. A long-awaited event for children. But something went wrong. This morning for about forty little students of the elementary schools of Cabras there was an off-program.
The bus that was to accompany them to Cagliari did not show up at the agreed time, that is, at eight thirty in Piazza Stagno. All the fault of an email that the Oristanese Bus Cooperative, the company chosen for the transport of young schoolchildren, did not read.
The trip was organized by the Mont'e Prama Foundation on the occasion of the “Archeologika” event. Destination: National Archaeological Museum and Saint Remy Bastion.
After an hour of waiting for the bus, however, not even the shadow. Meanwhile, in the piazza pond, the pouring rain was beginning to wet the children.
The school then began to solicit the company and the Municipality. At half past nine, after an hour, the now soaked children were taken back to school. While families were advised to go to the school building to bring dry clothes.
Pietro Serra, the owner of the company, explains what happened: “The confirmation of the trip from the Foundation arrived on the address that unfortunately we have not read. This is why our bus was not present in Piazza Stagno. It was a mistake that we tried to fix immediately by inviting one of our employees to join Cabras ” .
At around 10 the children still walked from their school in Piazza Stagno. Waiting for them was the Cobus driver with his bus. The initial despair turned back into a lot of joy.
