Today East Coast Drive discussed kids going back to school in eleven days.
The last time we asked parents and children about what they thought of schools reopening and this time around its a bit different because there's an actual date set.
This time around we wanted to ask you how you felt considering that the return date is now set in stone. We welcomed responses from Grade 7 and grade 12 learners because we wanted to hear directly from the students themselves.
