Are you aware that cleaning is best achieved using a general purpose detergent and warm water, clean cloths, mops and the mechanical action of wiping and cleaning, following by rinsing and drying?

There's so many ways this can get out of control very quickly, the virus is now more prevelant outside the country than when we locked down, we've 0 control of who's coming into the country, this can only go one way once we reopen schools as demonstrated in Israel, Sweden etc. NZ plan is only show in town, I just hope it doesn't take a student or pupil to prove that point.

Having said that John Boyles segment on Virgin Media news yesterday had the children within a pod 1m apart. If that is the case then I can fit maybe 18 at a squeeze. We don't have any spare rooms or space.

I’m guessing uniforms are going to be a no no unless you have one for every school day.

Same kinda occured in teaching. I sailed through college and TP, not a bother. I really struggled my first two years out even with all the supports that are/were in place. Experience really is everything in teaching.

Norma thinks schools can utilize, their music rooms, libraries, snooker rooms, bowling rooms and cigar parlors to accommodate the extra teachers that don't exist. Actually where did Norma actually teach, Downton Abbey?

Kids had to go back and they wanted them back fully, there wasn't really any other way to achieve that from what I can see. At least they can start working on something now. Nothing was ever going to completely mitigate the risk and life has to go on.
