“COVID-19 is scary so I am definitely afraid but I am very happy to come back to school after months of online learning. I get to see my teachers and friends whom I have not met in person for a long time. I feel safe because my classmates and I follow the SOPs like how our teachers tell us to. Understanding my subjects has been so much better now since I have come back to school because I can talk to my teachers whenever I have a problem.”

***************************

I HAD to share the devices with my three other siblings during PdPR which made keeping up with my studies really hard. Constantly being at home doesn’t help either because some of us can’t concentrate and pay attention after so many hours of staring at the screen... we just lose focus. I prefer being in school. Some of my classmates are a little naughty so my teachers have to spend more time educating them about the SOPs compared to the rest of us but eventually they understood and we’ve not had any issues following the SOPs since.”
