While some boys were playing,
part of the floor of a school in Salta collapsed
.
The dramatic episode took place at the Colegio Islas Malvinas 5010, in Chicoana, north of the capital of that province.
It happened during recess, while the girls were chatting in the yard.
It was there when
the earth literally swallowed them up
and caused a great shout from the rest of the companions, who came to the place to help them.
They were able to rescue them, although none came out of astonishment at what had happened.
The three girls fell into a
two meter deep well and
suffered some blows, but they are now with their families in their homes.
Despite the shock, the girls were not seriously injured.

"We never had knowledge that this well was underneath. The establishment is turning 43 years old, but
something like this never happened to us
. We have maintenance people who usually do some works, but this was not planned by anyone," said the director of the establishment. to El Trece.
The three injured girls,
between 13 and 14 years old
, are in the first year of commercial secondary school in Salta.
The well's school sector
was immediately closed
, and two of the nearby classrooms were also disabled.
The director himself announced that municipal staff will be in charge of filling and building the new school floor.
It is unknown why there was a well there
.
It is presumed that several years ago it functioned as an old drain and that it was later covered by dirt.
The locals maintain that due to
the humidity,
the floor
was eaten away
and this caused the students who were at recess on the brick sidewalk to fall.
Although they only suffered minor injuries, the shock was enormous.

is not connected to the municipal sewer network
and that from this fact work will intensify so that it functions normally.
