Those whose schools end this week and with holiday plans starting right after: are you keeping your kids home to avoid the risk of a burst bubble and 10-day isolation? Are you sending and planning to ignore the isolation? Or something else? I really don't know whether it's worth sending them back for 3.5 days when cases are so high and it seems highly likely that there'll be a positive case in their year... but then again, I hate to deny them the last days of term, it will kill my productivity / sanity and they have of course missed sooo much school already. We have just come out of back to back isolation of first my Y2 dd and my reception dd who can return to school Tuesday. Really interested to hear what others are doing. We're in NW London.

I am not sure either. DS1 (17) is sure he wants to go, and he will. DS2 in primary already told me they’ll watch movies every day, and some of his friends have left already, and we really really really want to finally go home (abroad) and see the grandparents who haven’t seen them for the last year and a half…we have factored in a self imposed quarantine to “cleanse” all of us from risks (we’re double vaxxed, but I have colleagues with Covid who have been vaccinated at the same time as us. It’s just everywhere!) but it’d would be upon arrival….where we have a big house and not a teeny flat with one bathroom only. If one catches now, it might take 3 weeks before we finish the round…
