My ds is in infants, year 2. He goes to a small school-2 classes of about 28 a year. One Year 1 class has been sent home as they have 7 cases of COVID and rising. Most of the other year 1 class has been kept home as a precaution. None in his year.
The classes don’t mix indoors, but as it’s a small school they all use the same lunch room, loos playground etc.
He has 4 more days of school before we break up for Christmas. My 70 yo Dm will be coming up on sat 19th for Christmas. She’s our bubble.
The school has said if we want to take our kids out we won’t be penalised.
Should I take him out?
Pros to taking out: reduced risk of catching it, won’t miss much academically I guess
Cons: he’s already missed a lot of school this year, he’d be sad to miss the virtual nativity, he’d miss the end of term fun things (although reduced this year)
Dh typically says “ what ever you think”
I don’t know.
What should I do?
