Milan, 28 April 2021 – From today, Wednesday 28 April, and until 12 noon on Wednesday 5 May it is possible to submit an application to participate in the summer sections of nursery schools, spring sections and nursery schools organized by the Municipality of Milan and located in 87 locations for nursery schools and 64 nursery schools.

Girls and boys attending municipal, contracted and accredited private nursery schools with an agreement, spring sections and municipal, state and private private nursery schools affiliated with the Municipality can enroll.

It will be possible to register for the first two weeks of July (1/16 July), for the last two weeks of July (19/30 July) or for the entire month. The summer sections will be open from Monday to Friday from 7am to 30pm and the attendance time for each child will be the same as agreed for the current educational year, compatibly with the need to stagger entrances and exit in compliance with the safety protocol.

At the entrance, as already happens daily in the services, a rigorous triage procedure will be followed: temperature measurement of both children and their companions and hand sanitization procedures. The summer sections will favor outdoor activities and play and socialization experiences, in compliance with the protocols and providing for an organization for separate 'bubbles'.

The application for participation is made exclusively online – at www.comune.milano.it/estatenidi for nests and at the address www.comune.milano.it/estateassociazione for nursery schools - through a SPID user or through the citizen's file in the "Education Education" section. The chronological order in which the application was submitted does not in any way constitute a right to priority in the ranking.

"The Administration – declares Education Councilor Laura Galimberti – confirms its desire to make play and leisure opportunities available to young Milanese citizens, reconciling their right to sociality with safety needs. In this particular moment in which the city needs to restart, the summer sections will support families in work-life balance, thanks to a stimulating program of activities in structures equipped with adequate spaces, also and above all outdoors".
