Repairs in Chisinau schools have been brought to completion, except for several schools, where the remaining work will not affect studies, stated municipal education chief Tatiana Nagnibeda-Tverdohleb at the City Hall's meeting Monday.

By decision of the Chisinau Municipal Council, 31 million lei was allocated for extensive repairs in 153 schools. The money was used to rehabilitate roofing, sanitation fixtures, wiring and the like.

Repairs in kindergartens continue. As many children are now at home in the care of their vacationing parents and older siblings, kindergarten attendance has halved. Either due to repair or because of low attendance rates, 49 kindergartens have been closed for the summer. They are expected to resume work during this week.
