Parents Worried About Schools Reopening, Despite RMCO

This week’s been filled with anxiety and a sense of uncertainty for many parents, as schools across the country reopened on 1st March, starting with preschoolers, as well as Primary 1 and 2 students. This is as new daily COVID-19 cases remain above 1,000. We speak with Loh Tian Hong, a father of three, to find how out he’s been feeling and how his kids are doing now that they’re back in school.
