Early Thursday morning five HDSB schools became aware of online threats and immediately notified police, said HDSB spokesperson Haley Juniper. 'The school day is proceeding as usual and information has been shared with parents/guardians,' she said. 'The safety and well-being of students and staff is our highest priority.'

The last thing they needed was to be woken shortly after 5am by an announcement that the passengers should assemble at their muster stations on deck - not least because they didn't know where their muster stations were, having skipped the safety drill on the first day for cocktails instead.
