Parents carried their children through floods on the first day back to school after the summer holidays as Tropical Storm Ma battered the Philippines with heavy rain.

Footage shows mums and teachers wading through the knee-high floods swamping an elementary school in Hagonoy, Bulacan on August 22. Some of the women are seen carrying their children piggyback across the deluge.

State weather bureau PAGASA said Severe Tropical Storm Ma-On touched down in Isabela province at 10:30 am local time on August 22.

It brought torrential rains and floods in the country's north, triggering the suspension of classes and government work in the nation's capital and nearby provinces until Wednesday.
