KUALA LUMPUR – Schools across the country reopened their doors today for preschoolers, Year 1 and Year 2 pupils.

The reopening of the face-to-face school session, after it was closed nationwide from November 9 last year, also sees students and teachers adapting to new norms and standard operating procedures (SOPs).

However, the face-to-face school session has been postponed to March 14 for schools in Kuching, involving the Samarahan, Julau, Meradong, Sibu, Kapit, Bintulu, Subis and Miri districts, due to the current Covid-19 situation.
