From 2 June 2020, MOE began a staggered approach to bringing students back into schools after a period of home-based learning during the circuit breaker. In Catholic High School, students made a DIY mask using batik cloth to commemorate Racial Harmony Day. The masks were donated to various religious organisations and NGOs in Singapore, such as Krishna's Kitchen, Church of the Holy Cross, the Salvation Army and the Central Sikh Temple.
