In a message to students and their parents: The
ministers of education, finance and the chairman of the local government agreed to run the "schools of the holidays" even during the four days of the Passover holiday. You will receive rich study content, and a variety of experiential activities.
The organizational infrastructure in kindergartens and grades 1-2 will be a framework for budding lunches, while allowing for the addition of children up to the maximum number approved by the Ministry of Health.
In kindergartens, due to the unique need and operational possibilities, it will be possible at the same time to open new frameworks not based on buds, depending on the need and feasibility at the local level.
