An Abu Dhabi school has lifted several Covid-19 protocols after inoculating more than 85 per cent of its students.
Grace Valley Indian School’s students are no longer required to wear masks in outdoor areas. Physical distancing requirements have also been removed, while all school events, including assemblies and graduation ceremonies, will be permitted. The Abu Dhabi Department of Education and Knowledge (Adek) recognised Grace Valley’s successful vaccination efforts as it reached the Blue School Initiative’s top ‘blue’ tier.
The school can now host inter-school extracurricular activities with other ‘blue’ tier schools, including sports tournaments and competitions. Parents will be allowed to attend on-campus events, provided they adhere to entry requirements. Moreover, field trips will also be reinstated, amongst other privileges.
