The children attend from about 8.30am until about 4.30pm. When they come in, first they do exercises, and then have "ogloni hol" - breakfast, maybe rice in milk, maybe with dried curds. Then they have a lesson with the teacher which will last about 40 mins, though it can be longer. One day it might be Maths, the next Language, the next Art, the next P.E., the next Nature, and so on. Then, after their lesson, they will be variously occupied - action songs led by the teacher, watching cartoons, playing with some toys, or just waiting ... until around 11.30 when the tables are set out for lunchtime and the children get their hands washed etc.
Lunch is a soup of meat and rice / vegetables / noodles - big platefuls, with seconds for anyone who wants it. Then after lunch, the children sleep for a couple of hours, usually on mats rolled out on the floor, but one kindergarten has wee dormitories adjoining each class. When the children wake up at around 3.30pm, they are all washed, get their teeth brushed and hair done, and then they have a review of the morning's lesson with their teacher, and some more soup, before hometime.
