Heads of schools and private school owners have hailed the decision by the Rivers State Government to reopen nursery and primary schools in the state.
A private school proprietress, Mrs Jim Halliday, who was visibly happy, expressed gratitude to the state governor for the reopening of the nursery and primary schools, saying it was a delight to be back in the classrooms.
She said the schools were fully prepared to strictly adhere to the extant COVID-19 prevention protocol to combat the disease.
According to her, “we will do our best to make sure our eyes are on the children and also observe all COVID-19 protocol”
Halliday, who spoke with The Tide said they were happy to be back with the school children, noting that it would be improper for school children to be left at home for too long.
She thanked the state governor, observing that he has shown that he has the best interest of the people of Rivers State at heart.
The state government had on Monday announced the reopening of all nursery and primary schools in the state with effect from Monday, 23rd November 2020 for first term, 2020/2021 academic session.
