Transition Days

What is happening your schools with ‘move up’ days?
I am a TA in a key worker bubble at the moment and we’ve been told by SLT that the children from our new September class will be invited in before the end of term.
We will have half of the class in for the morning and the other half in for the afternoon, with a ‘deep clean’ of the classroom in between.
This means that I will be with my normal bubble one day then the next day I’ll be with up to 30 different children and a different teacher. Also my bubble children will have a different teacher and TA for that day because my bubble teacher will be meeting their new class and have their new TA with them. Then the next day we will all be back together again.
It seems like a lot of cross contamination and breaking of bubbles.
I’m not sure what the solution is but just wondered what other schools were doing.

Children are coming to school for an hour in their current classes.
During that hour they will be split into their classes for next year.
(Ch from my class are going into 7 different classes next year).
They'll spend 45 mins with new teacher.
Transition activity + shown how to log in to MSTeams.
Report given out.
Go home.

So, we'll need to do the same activity up to 5 times (or more), but only with 5 or 6 children at a time.

No cleaning in between, but sitting on chairs at the front of the classroom, not going near tables at all.

Taking place over 2 days - 20th and 21st July. I don't think many children will turn up, most will be on holiday by then.

We're not having physical induction days at all!
