Take no risks! A frosty reception is well worth the safety for my money. I think a lot are disregarding the advice at the moment. It is supposed to be quiet out there, like a Sunday morning, but rush hour looks the same right now.
We are not seeing our parents, at all. I am really not happy that they are still shopping for bits and bobs to be honest.
Great that the lads are doing this. Rugby's values shining through- again.
My school is shutting, but open for a few boarders and children of key workers. As we are independent we have a few pharmacists/doctor parents, and some have taken us up on this. So I have volunteered to go in- it will be a rota, so it may not be continuous or sticking to exact school times, and demand will vary according to the parent's work schedule, but I won't know when I am on, and need to be available even on my regular "day off". Because I am asthmatic, and the fact that I have been hospitalised about five years ago with pneumonia, I have asked to do PE rather than indoor teaching where I can keep a safe distance. I won't be doing rugby, though. We do not have the facilities as our pitches are beyond sodden bar a couple of patches I have kept for the girls' soccer, and I don't really have the skills or experience in coaching Union, whereas I have been involved with school soccer for a number of years and have also team taught a few sports with proper (first subject) PE teachers. We have had little need for rugby coaching as every man and his dog does it, and we have had ex players in delivering it at times, so I have never had the need to develop the skills needed.
My wife is getting paid leave and can look after my daughter when I am working, so it works out well. If I was not going in to work she would not get the leave. I would rather the risk from a few NHS children in the open than her going into a packed building, and this way I get to help keep some front line staff working.
