Lessons according to the timetable begin on Wednesday, 24 August. Further information on the start times for each class can be found on the relevant school's website. Just over 4,000 children will be starting school in the primary schools of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur this autumn, of whom approximately 350 are beginning in Year 1.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h4>A successful start to the school year is very important.<\/h4>\n<p>Starting primary school is a big step in every child's life, and at such a milestone, collaboration between home and school is extremely important. A supportive upbringing and good cooperation are essential for children and young people to thrive at school and to recognise their own strengths. All information about the start of term can be found on the schools' websites, which also provide good information about the schools' work and priorities.  <a href=\"\/en\/ibuar\/schools-and-children\/primary-schools\/grunnskolarnir\/\" class=\"internal\">An overview of the schools can be found here.&nbsp;<\/a> <\/p>\n<h4>Porridge, fruit and free school supplies&nbsp;<\/h4>\n<p>Since autumn 2019, all pupils have been able to get free porridge in the morning at school. In addition, a fruit subscription is offered for morning snack, lunch and afternoon snack, whether a child is in the after-school club (the afternoon snack is included in the after-school club fee) or not (in which case it is paid for separately). <a href=\"https:\/\/www.skolamatur.is\/\">School Food Ltd <\/a> Manage the catering service in all the town's primary schools, except for \u00c1slandssk\u00f3li, and should contact them regarding meal subscriptions.<a href=\"https:\/\/www.skolamatur.is\/\">School food.is<\/a>) The City of Hafnarfj\u00f6r\u00f0ur also provides primary school pupils with educational materials free of charge.
