This August 22, 2022, the start of
the school year seemed more overwhelming
than ever before. One could observe the
mixed feelings of excitement, joy, and
confusion among the pupils, parents, and
teachers at Kinale Elementary School.
Early morning on the first day of
school, pupils began gathering in the triage
area. While it is mandatory for the pupils to
wear masks, many of them- including the
youngest among them-followed covering
their faces. This was not done solely for the
purpose of hygienic protection, but also
demonstrate pupils’ awareness about
COVID 19 and following the health and
safety protocol by the IATF. After 2 years
of distance learning, which was challenging
for children, parents, and teachers alike, the
willingness to go back to normal learning
processes is now demonstrably high;
everyone displays a readiness to comply
with the new safety regulations set by the
government.

All the standards safety procedures are observed as children enter the school
premises: they pass a disinfection; a thermal screening and they sanitize their hands.
Although hand sanitizers are installed in every classroom, teachers also encourage the
children to always sanitize their hands with their own alcohol after every classroom
activity.
The first day back in the classroom was unusual and emotional for both pupils
and teachers. Wearing mask, which is mandatory for teachers makes jobs physically
harder due to the strained breathing. Masks also cover their emotional expressions,
requiring pupils to focus harder to equally understand the information teachers are
conveying.
