The mother of a six-year-old Guelph student is speaking out after her son went to the washroom before getting on the bus for a school-wide trip but later realizing, the bus left without him.
Lincholn is a senior-kindergarten student at St. Peter’s Catholic Elementary school.
On June 9, the entire school was going to church. Everyone boarded the buses and left – except Lincoln.
“I asked my teacher to go to the bathroom. My teacher forgot I was in the bathroom,” Lincoln told CTV News.
According to Lincoln and his mother – the school forgot Lincoln and when he tried to go back in the school, the doors were locked.
“I was scared and sad,” he said.
Lincoln explained how he hid in the bushes and shouted for help. Roughly ten minutes later, a teacher who decided to drive to church, heard Lincoln and watched him until the rest of the school returned.
