- Date: 18th May 2020
- Description:Austrian schools reopen after two months of empty classrooms Schools reopen for around 700,000 children and young people in Austria on Monday morning, after 8 weeks of lockdown. Things are not yet normal: Classes at elementary schools, lower secondary schools and special schools are taught in so-called shift work, half of the class is present on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, the other half on Thursday and Friday - in the following week the groups swap. Although everyday school life is still a long way off, the joy of starting school again is great. In kindergarten, best friends can play together again. Apart from parents who deliver their offspring, nobody here wears a face-cover, especially small children are sometimes afraid of masks.
