Public kindergartens in Bishkek to reopen for those in critical need

AKIPRESS.COM - Not all children will be admitted to reopening public kindergartens in Bishkek, education department's senior specialist Chinara Maitikova said.
Despite 50-70 children are enrolled in many groups in public kindergartens, only 15 children will be admitted to each group to maintain social distancing and follow sanitary recommendations.
Children will be selected on the basis of certain criteria, Chinara Maitikova said. Only those in critical need will be admitted, she said.
Particularly, kindergartens will reopen for children of single mothers, children of public servants and children from vulnerable families.
Children should come to kindergarten in masks, but will take it off indoor, she said.
Children will play, have meals and various activities in the kindergarten.
"Temperature of each child entering kindergarten will be tested. Each kindergarten has a room for isolation with all necessary conditions. In case a child is unwell, his parents will be called and a doctor will examine such child," she said.
