Eating in classrooms and no playtime during breaks will be the new normal at school, said a principal.
principal Livhuwani Ramano was expecting 132 grade 7 pupils to return to school on Monday.
“We have eight grade 7 teachers so we divided the number of pupils by eight so every class has a maximum of 16 pupils,” he said.Ramano said changes also had to be made to the school's feeding scheme to adhere to the Covid-19 management rules.We told them to bring their own plates,” he said. The principal of Thohoyandou Primary said the school needs mobile classrooms when grade 4 and grade 5 pupils return as there are not enough classrooms to ensure social distancing.“We've realised that when the grade 4 and grade 5 pupils come back, we won’t have enough classrooms.
