Several school divisions across Saskatchewan have moved to online learning for two weeks due to the spread of Covid-19 variants across the province.
For some parents, the change has been difficult with having to balance work on top of watching their kids while others have found it easier.
Father of two daughters, who are in Kindergarten and Grade 1, Tyler Thorn of Moosomin, says that for the first week of online classes, he had to take time off work to watch his daughters.
“I had to skip work this week in the mornings and my wife has to work at the hospital. So she’ll go to work and I stay at home with the girls through their school sessions in the morning, then I drop them off at daycare in the afternoon,” Thorn said.
