Back-to-school and Covid-19

[jadewis]

Hi everyone ! I found a great article here about tips to approach the upcoming back-to-school.
I wanted to ask you how do you talk about this issue to your children without scaring them ? To be honest, I am also a little bit concerned over school starting again, they have been away from their friends for such a long time...
If you could give me some advice it would be great!

Thank you!

They dont need masks for a start. Some primary schools are saying no bags/pencil cases either.
My 2 went back to secondary school this week. One way systems, coloured circles for different entrances and hand sanitising seem to be the main changes, along with a bit of chaos!

My two both went back this week and we just chatted through the need to wash hands, distance from adults and that things might be a bit different.

It's been totally fine and both have enjoyed going back and seeing their friends.
