all years.<\/p>\n<p>Students in kindy, Prep, Year 1 and Years 11 and 12 began a staged return to normal schooling on May 11 but the rest of classes resumed this week.<\/p>\n<p><strong>At St John&#8217;s Lutheran School in Kingaroy, principal Karyn Bjelke Petersen said she was thrilled to be welcoming all students back.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It\u2019s wonderful to come together, reconnect, re-establish friendships, have face-to-face conversations and support each other through this next stage,&#8221; Mrs Bjelke Petersen said.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Increased hygiene practices and social distancing for adults will continue to be in place around the school and we&#8217;ll be working hard to care for the well-being of all students as they re-adjust to new daily routines.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I would like to acknowledge the hard work our teachers have put into preparing online lessons during the past five weeks and congratulate our teacher aides for the way they&#8217;ve supported the children of essential workers who&#8217;ve had to attend school.&#8221;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_258538\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-258538\" style=\"width:
