We, as parent of SC students, strongly demand school to reconsider the decision of shortening the school hours from 3-hour to 2.5-hour, when face-to-face classes resume on 25th March.

We believe cancellation of Tea Time may not necessarily result in school hours shortening, where substitute activities (e.g. playground time, homework session, etc) could be arranged to make up the time. School management may not be aware that how this sudden change in school hours affect parents' daily routine greatly, e.g. traffic in the morning. Especially for those working parents who intend to drop-off children to school before commuting to work; and those students taking nanny bus to school where they will be waiting outside while school gate won't open till 8.55am (instead of 8.25am).

Therefore, we're hoping school management would re-consider the decision in shortening the school hours as a results of the Tea Time cancellation, and wiling to listen to our petition.
