After 2 years of silent hallways and empty classrooms, it was a delight today to welcome all of our students back into the school campus. The extensive preparation and planning put into making school re-entry safe and welcoming, is a testament to the care and commitment of all Foothills staff.
Our aim for the first day back was to normalize the school day, have students reacclimatise to the classroom, and reengage positive connections with other students,teaching and non-teaching staffs, all of which are essential for successful learning and growth moving forward.
This seems to have been a success, despite the masks, cohorts, handwashing, directional flow in hallways and physical distancing. It really was quite wonderful to see shining eyes peeking over the top of masks, as students arrived ready for the post exam activity classes today.
Thank you to all parents and guardians for helping to prepare our children for the first day of school as this had a huge impact on this successful day after such a long gap.
