All Schools in Pune will reopen on the 31st August, Monday. ( Symbiosis International, St Helena’s School, Hutchings High School and Primrose School, St Mary’s, Bishops.)
Nearly 50% of the schools opened last Monday on the 24th August 2009. DPS, Vibgyor were included in the list of the schools that hurried to open on the 24th August. School kids going to these schools are much protected as they have their own school buses. Hence it’s safer and also easier to track kids having any swine flu related symptoms. Also DPS and Vibgyor had made their students wear mask and carry liquid sanitizers compulsory.
Bishops (all three branches) will open on Monday the 31st Aug 2009.
Nursery, LKg , UKg in Bishops will remain closed and will open on the 7th September 2009. All classes above UKg will open on the 31st August 2009.
St Mary’s will re open on the 31st August 2009.
Pre-Nursery, Nursery, Prep, Std 1 (both Boys and Girls ) will remain closed till further notice and will not reopen on 31st August 2009.
The school timings will be as follows:
Girls:
CLASSES TIME
II to VI 8.30 a.m. to 1.00 p.m. (Half Day)
VII to X 8.30 a.m. to 3.30 p.m.
Boys:
CLASSES TIME
II to VI 7.35 a.m. to 12.30 p.m.
VII to X 7.35 a.m. to 1.30 p.m.
Mon to Sat
Interesting common factor between these St Mary’s and Bishops schools is that they do not own any school buses. The kids depend on private buses and vans which pick kids going to different schools at the same time. In my opinion, these two schools and all others who postponed their school reopening, was a wise step, as their students have more chances of spreading the H1N1 virus infection.
