Covid antibodies in a contact?

My children do a regular out of school type class - or at least did until lockdown.
Right back at the start of Feb the teacher of the class got Ill with a sore throat and cough and was ill for quite some time. It was before Covid was considered to be a risk in this country so he just took antibiotics and carried on as though he had a normal cold/bronchitis whatever. Still going to class.

Anyway my children all got a high temp at that time (I actually posted on here at some point around 9th feb - I know the date because I also text my sister!) that my 8 year old had a really high temp and cough and then a few days later my next child. Dh and I had wheezy chests in the mornings and a slight sore throat for a few days - that’s it bc-dh was much worse than me but still relatively mild.

Anyway I didn’t think anything of it although we have joked that we had it already not thinking it was actually the case - until yesterday the teacher posted that he had tested positive for Covid antibodies (he is a healthcare worker) and that it looks like the illness in feb was actually Covid.

I know it makes no difference to anything or anyone but out of interest I wondered if anyone else had contact with people who seem to have had it?

How likely is it we have had it do you think ? The idea we have is somewhat calming since DH is higher risk.
!

Don’t worry I won’t be changing any behaviour we Obv have no idea but I am just wondering what people’s thoughts are!
