(ANSA) - NAPLES, OCTOBER 17 - There are children with the shield of Captain America, others with colored chalks and writing on concrete blocks placed in front of the entrance of Palazzo Santa Lucia, in Naples, the seat of the Campania Region. many are under the age of 6 and 'accompany' their parents on the second day of protest against the order of the governor Vincenzo De Luca which closes schools until 30 October.

There are not only mothers and fathers, there are also teachers, experts who hold workshops in the schools, there are school bus drivers who ask for financial support.

"Give us back the school", the demonstrators say in chorus, who carry a banner with the words "School is not a virus".

"We would like to say, after De Luca's live Fb diieri, that we are not here because we underestimate the risk - said Maria Carmen, Alfonso's mother - but forgive that in seven months he has done nothing and takes it out on schools by closing them".

Sandra Forte is a teacher and a mother, protesting today in this double capacity.

"Even doctors have said that the infection occurs outside school and non-school - he underlined - The school must be reopened, as a teacher I know well that with distance learning, children are unable to maintain attention as when we are inclasse".

Stefano Nicoletti is the father of Elisabetta and Anna, 8 and 9 years old.

The whole family arrived at the garrison.

"We ask for the withdrawal of the provision - he explained - because it damages the right to study, which is completely trampled by De Luca's ordinance".

"Today the championship is allowed, there is a match in Naples, there are a thousand people at the stadium - he added - and the problem would be the schools that are controlled?".

Among the demonstrators, there is also a teacher of Art and images from the Fiorelli middle school.

"We split the classes - he said - to make sure that there was all the necessary distance between the children whose temperature is measured before entering. I am against the closure, the request is to reopen immediately".
