Social distancing mandated by COVID-19 so as to slow viral spread has resulted in school closures. It is now the end of summer 2020 and schools are starting. Reopening schools could be safe if accompanied by precautionary measures. This paper describes the events leading up to school closures in Malta with reference to San Andrea Independent School, and the measures and contingency plans created by the school during Malta\'s soft lockdown and summer holidays for safe school reopening. As cases rise in the global second wave, all should be done to ensure that clusters and hotspots of COVID-19 are avoided or minimised in schools - whilst children may not generally be severely affected, they may be in contact with vulnerable members of society on whom COVID-19 inflicts significant morbidity and mortality.
