Sri Lanka’s Catholic Church on Thursday announced it will reopen its schools next week for the first time since Easter Sunday bombings killed 258 people. Cardinal Malcolm Ranjith said the schools would open Tuesday after remaining shut following fears of a repeat of the April 21 attacks on three churches and three luxury hotels.

“We have decided to open all Catholic schools on May 14,” Ranjith told reporters in Colombo following a meeting between the country’s 12 bishops and President Maithripala Sirisena in Colombo Thursday.

All state-run schools—more than 10,000 in total—had resumed classes on Monday after police and security forces deployed armed guards.

But attendance has been low despite a raft of new security measures, including parking restrictions near schools.
