Hi I’m new to plastering and was looking for some advice please?

I had a leak in the loft and it caused the plasterboard to be damaged so iv replace that part of the ceiling with new plasterboard now do I scrim tape it then PVA then apply 1st coat all over as I’m plastering the whole ceiling then go on from there

Or do i

Plaster that section 1st wait for it to go off then plaster the whole ceiling?
Thanks

Get someone who can Ames Tape, its not a big job.
 
Thanks appreciate the messages to those of you that have been helpful
The whole ceiling needs re plastering though but just was unsure if I was to re plaster the patch before doing the 1st coat
