A place in school from 7:30 a.m. at 18 city-run elementary schools (free)
- Registration as an after-school club member is also needed
- Apply by the 20th of each month to use it from the next month
Elementary schools start later than daycare centers begin accepting children, so when children start school, the morning place to leave them disappears. To solve this "first-grade wall," from April 2026 all 18 city-run elementary schools offer a place from 7:30 a.m. until the time to arrive at school or the start of the after-school club. The fee is free, including the programs. It covers 1st to 6th graders at city-run elementary schools. Hours are 7:30 a.m. until the time to arrive at school on weekdays, 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. on Saturdays, and 7:30 to 8:00 a.m. on weekdays during long school holidays. To use it, in addition to applying for Asa Kids, you need to register as an A or B member of the after-school club. If you apply by the 20th of each month, you can use it from the next month. You can apply in writing, and from October 2026 also online. Children can read, study on their own and interact under supervisors, and on weekdays program providers also offer programs such as active play.
