As stated by the Ministry of Education, they will be putting their measures in place to ensure that students are, as required, six feet away from each other...

“Temperature checks are definitely a part of what will be facilitated... In terms of the wearing of masks, that would be a whole new thing for them, so we expect that the children will be wearing masks into the schools.

“And so we definitely would want parents to send their children [to school] with hand sanitiser, with an extra mask, if it is possible, with tissue, because, of course, the right thing to do if they are sneezing is to sneeze into a tissue and then throw it away,” she suggested.

Additionally, she said parents should remind children of three key messages:

“It is important that they wash their hands with soap and water at every opportunity they are able to, and when they are not able to go, that they must use their hand sanitisers,” she said.

She also urged parents to remind children that when they are taking off their mask or putting it on, they should use their hand sanitiser to clean their hands.

“Again, the parents should be reminding their children, as much as its going to be really exciting to see their friends after not seeing them for awhile, let them show their love in ways that do not require them to be in [contravention] of physical distance guidelines… So they have to avoid the hugging, the shaking of hands,” she said, adding that people just cannot operate in that way right now.
