Teachers and students - what was the first day back at school like?

My kids were super happy to be back. Not scared and understood that there is a risk but comfortable knowing they have protection from the vaccine. Said their teachers were both there happy and had good energy. Everyone knows where it could go but they’re all doing their best. My partner and I are ready for anything that may come up. We are very lucky that we have careers that are flexible. As a Manager I will also do whatever I can to accommodate any of my team that has to deal with the issue. I’m grateful to our school and our teachers but our government can collectively pound sand for not doing anything to make it easier on all schools and school staff.
