The staff's preparation and overtime hours will be increased on<br \/>\nnurseries and thus give nursery managers increased scope to meet the needs of<br \/>\nthe many challenges that the nursery school faces. The steps will be<br \/>\nthe first steps in increasing children's spaces in the nurseries and is the City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur<br \/>\nto take the initiative in that matter. A new spatial plan will be adopted with the aim of<br \/>\nA guiding principle is that there will be fewer children in the playgroup groups inside the nurseries and is<br \/>\nthus working systematically to improve the working environment for teachers as well as<br \/>\nchildren.
