D24@7 Jun 2021 Plain COVID Diary in Taiwan

added 476 local cases, 26 deaths. 7 Jun 2021 (Mon)

The level 3 alert has been extended until 28th Jun. Graduation ceremonies are the most concern.

In Taiwan, graduation ceremonies and graduation trips are the most important things for kids. It's the last time that they can get together with classmates; the last time they see each other in school, or maybe in their lifetime. It's also the last time to show their appreciation to their teachers; the last time they stay at school. So it's really a big deal here. Graduation trips is a final trip before graduation, kids could have a three-day trip, it could be the first time or rare to go on a faraway trip without parents accompanying.

My youngest daughter will have a rehearsal on Wed for her online graduation ceremony. I've seen some schools adopted creative methods to celebrate graduation. Like using Minecraft. It could be memorable in their lives.
