From Monday, there will again be room for all children in daycare centres.

This means that parents no longer need to preregister to secure a place for their children.

Since daycare reopened on 20 April, many of the country’s daycare centres have only managed to take in about half of the usual number of children due to social distancing requirements.

The Municipalities Association has not yet received updated instructions on how this full-scale reopening of daycare services will be structured, but a plan for the schools is ready.

Eyðun Christiansen, chairman of the Municipalities Association, says he expects the daycare procedures will be similar to those in schools.

According to the school plan, children and staff will not be allowed to move between rooms.

The decision on whether all children can play together outside in playgrounds has not yet been made.

The official recommendations on hygiene and social distancing remain unchanged; however, the instructions issued ahead of the partial reopening on 20 April say that some degree of physical contact is permitted.
