暑期如何维护亲子关系？送神兽去魔都爱心暑托班

Shanghai’s public summer camps for primary school students have resumed⑦ this year after a year’s suspension⑧ due to the pandemic. Registration began for some this morning.

由于疫情停办一年的上海小学生爱心暑托班，今年将如期开班。暑托班的报名工作今日启动。

At around 8am, the registration① site for summer camps in Jiading town was crowded② with parents who want to enroll their children.

上午8点，在嘉定镇街道爱心暑托班报名点，等候的家长已经坐满了街道提供的临时桌椅。

The capacity③ is limited. I arrived very early because I was worried there would be no places left.李伯伯爱心暑托班报名学生爷爷: 名额有限，生怕轮不到我就早点来

To apply for the camps, parents had to fill out forms on their child’s health conditions in advance and comply with pandemic control protocols④. For those families with two children and have to work at daytime, the summer camp is a great benefit to them.It is difficult to take care of two children who stay at home during the summer holiday. We feel more relaxed if we only have to look after one child at home and can send another to a summer camp.

申请暑托班，父母须提前填写孩子健康状况的表格，并遵守疾病协议。对于那些有两个孩子的家庭来说，暑托班能带来很大的帮助。“两个孩子都在家的话，照顾起来就更难一些了，这样的话（一个孩子）在学校里，我们在家里照顾一个孩子的话，还是相对来说要轻松很多。”

Jiading district plans to open two summer camps, one in July and another August. The fee is 600 yuan for per student. A total of 30 schools will provide the required space. Parents can look for available⑤ summer camps on the Suishenban(随申办)app and apply for an electronic student card after having successfully enrolled⑥ in a camp.

嘉定区计划开设两期暑托班，7月和8月各一期，每期各3周，费用为每期每人600元。共有30所学校为爱心暑托班提供场地。爱心暑托班将接入“一网通办”，家长可通过“随申办”登陆暑托班平台，查询相关信息。报名成功，待工作人员录入信息后，孩子就可在线申领电子学员证。
