Hello My Dear Great Ones,
After four months of teaching kids via zoom it was a great day for both me and Celia when we were allowed to go back to school. Interacting with kids through zoom just did not cut it for us. Some kids did well with getting assignments in. Others? Without real face to face contact with them they slipped through our grasp. Apparently this was a problem world wide. Although we are back at school there are tons of restrictions, which are annoying, but mandated by the government of HK. Still it is great to be with the kids. And for those who failed to do assignments during the school closure? Ha ha. No ping pong or badminton until you get them done!
PE. No invasion games, no tag, no touching or contact sports. So whats left? Ping pong and badminton. After the class is done rackets and balls have to be wiped down by alcohol. Social distancing? Table width apart! Students also were not allowed to change into sport clothes due to being close together in a locker room and all have to wear masks. Doing any physical activity with masks is horrible.
Badminton!
Waling in line with lots of spacing.
Class projects well distanced.
Recess is follow a line in a big space. Hmm not working well here.
Half day classes with half the class coming in the morning and the other half coming in the afternoon. Desks well spaced facing front. Masks on all the time.

Lunch. Two at a table facing one way. Glass barrier in the middle of the table. Teachers making sure students follow protocol. Lunch time is extended and in shifts so its not crowded like normal. Great....
An assembly.
So there you have it. A little peek in the covid 19 world of HK schools.
Have a great week!
Love adios and ping on!
Dirk
