They follow the children in the garden until the class teacher arrives.
At the end of the school day, the children are gathered in the school’s private garden, and the entire classroom teachers are present, as well as the supervisor of each car, and he reviews the names of the children present.
In the second case, children who come with their parents at the specified entry times are grouped with the children who come in school cars in the park until they get to class. If the parents bring the children earlier than the specified time, the children will be in a waiting room accompanied by supervisors.
