Today was the last day of school for Orko. Schools closes its doors, but remote schooling continues for a week. This was in line with the UK government's announcement on Wednesday that all schools in UK will be closing from Friday 20th March.
What a week it has been!!
I had been getting increasingly anxious about the school closure. It was obvious that Uk could not go on as normal with the steep rise in cases of coronavirus infections in Uk. I had been constantly monitoring the number of reported cases in Harrow.
Orko had been going to school in sports clothes as they stopped using their changing rooms. The morning assembly was replaced by extended register and all school matches and social events were cancelled.
Yesterday we received an email from Mr Calvey saying a parent in pre-prep had tested positive and the family was self isolating.
Orko wanted to drop home Kayden and Jaysel as he was not sure when he will see them next. It was nice talking to the boys at the end of the school day.
After school we went to Brent Cross with the intention of getting some of Joy's smoking cartridges and to return some trousers he had bought. John lewis was closed but we found M&S food hall was not only open, it had some stock of food as well. We got some more food for the freezer.
Today evening Boris Johnson announced all pubs, bars, restaurants and cafes are to remain closed to enforce social distancing. On an impulse we ordered a take away from Bombay central Joy ordered extra portions which will last us till tomorrow.
The doors close today and we are not going to go out if we can. Lets see how that works.
