The Vatuwaqa Primary School in Suva will no longer operate as a polling venue for the Fijian General Election on Wednesday.
A section of the school was destroyed by an early morning fire on Monday.
Supervisor of Elections Mohammed Saneem said the voters who were scheduled to cast their ballots at the school would now vote at the Yat Sen Secondary School.
Saneem said a call centre had been set up for voters.
"If you are a voter who is still unsure of where you will be voting, simply text your voter card number to 1500. And it will message you the location of the polling venue where you will be voting in this election. We have added an additional information to this 1500 platform. Voters who text their voter card number to 1500 will now also receive notification of the person they can contact for the purposes of free public transport on Election Day. "
The Fijian Elections Office has also made changes to other polling stations around the country.
Any voters unsure about where they are supposed to vote on Wednesday are advised to text their voter registration number to 1550 for the most up to date information.
