“It feels awesome to be able to see my friends and teachers in school. We had our classteacher period as soon as we got to school, and all of my subject classes in English, Math and Hindi have felt extra special,” said Arjumand Ajmal Khan, a nine-year-old fourth grader at the GEMS United Indian School, told Gulf News.
