Hi babyblush,
Ever since Wayne started childcare on 2 Jan, there are abt 4-5 confirm case including 1 of them is Wayne. Teacher and principal told me they clean the toys, mattress and room every day if there is a case being reported. And mattress cover/blanket/pillow is sent back for parents to wash everyday.
If there is a series of 10 cases being reported, then the centre will be ask to shut down.
So far I am still paying the full month fee as per normal, no pro-ration of school fee.
My friend son's have hfmd for almost a month, after talking to MCYS, MP and the school, the school finally decided to waive off that month school fee.
So I think is based on case by case basis.
It is really common in childcare.
