Schools have also been advised to limit outdoor activities during midday hours unless absolutely necessary. The MOE adds that indoor sports competitions and training sessions should be planned instead, based on regional temperatures,
Additionally, the MoE has also emphasised the importance of ensuring that students stay hydrated.
