In Kutaisi, children continue to go to kindergartens with destroyed infrastructure.
In Kutaisi, Kindergartens No. 8 and No. 23 are in bad condition, but despite this they continue to operate as usual.
Photos published in government procurement documents show damaged sinks, walls and facades of buildings, destroyed flooring, traces of wetness and crumbling plaster.
And all this in institutions that young children visit every day.
The authorities plan to rebuild the two kindergartens. So far, purchases have been published for the purpose of preparing design estimates and performing the relevant testing.
The total preliminary cost of the two purchases is 150 thousand GEL. We are talking specifically about project preparation and testing, not the repair work itself.
At the same time, the head of the Kutaisi Gardens association, David Tsitaishvili, assures that the condition of the buildings does not interfere with the educational process.
"The kindergartens announced for design continue to operate as usual. Nothing disturbs the children. Precisely because the infrastructure is in such a state, rehabilitation is planned," he said.
According to him, the kindergartens in the city are renovated every year: the works in two institutions have already been completed, and in two others they are ongoing.
A total of 38 branches of kindergartens are operating in Kutaisi today.
Meanwhile, the question remains: How safe is it for children to stay in buildings with damaged walls, dampness and crumbling finishes? The results of the security checks on these premises have not yet been reported.
The question here is why do the parents, who see the condition of the kindergarten, send their children to this kindergarten? Do you have free children?! For what reason do you despise your children so much that you send them to this wretched place in every way?!
