Many children have again missed out on their end of year celebrations. Although some of the restrictions may have been lifted before the schools broke up not many schools actually did what they normally would. This has left many children feeling that they have not had the opportunity to say goodbye to their friends or teachers properly.
IT may be that they normally Covid case still on the rise, many teachers thought that it would not really be possible to organise such an event.
If your child has missed out on end of year activities then try and think of other ways that they can have fun whilst still staying safe. It could be that you plan to do something once they are back in school in September or October time although no one knows exactly what the rules will be at that time and it could be if cases start to rise again, we have to go in to another lockdown.
Starting secondary school can be daugnting enough and many children have not been able to go for taster days at their new school, so those first few days may be a little different for them and you may need to offer them some extra reassurance.
