With temperatures checked, masks fitted, and hand sanitisers at the ready, many Singapore children returned to school on Tuesday after a novel coronavirus lockdown of nearly two months.

Across the island, the hum of the morning rush hour resumed while staff at schools urged students to maintain a safe distance as they lined up to return to class.

With one of the highest coronavirus tallies in Asia, Singapore has said it will ease restrictions gradually, with the registry of marriages and some businesses, including pet salons, also reopening on Tuesday.

“You have to restart your normal life at some point,” said Harsha Yavagal, who was sending his boys aged five and 12 back to school.

“Schools are taking all possible measures to cope with the virus,” he said.
