“I ask you to pick up the children ahead of time, since I survived an attack by the teacher’s assistants. I need to leave,” this was the message parents of 5-year-old children who were in an after-school group in Kfar Saba received from the teacher on Wednesday, February 28 .
Parents who came to pick up their children said that the teacher began filming the two assistants, which angered them. They knocked the phone out of her hands and a fight broke out between them in front of the children. The kids got very scared and started crying and hiding.
Parents claim that an unpleasant atmosphere has long been established in the kindergarten and some even complained about the behavior of the staff.
The mother of one of the children added that her son pressed himself against the wall “and watched in horror as the nannies fought with the teacher.” At the same time, parents are confused and do not know whether there will be an extended day group. If it is closed because of the incident, then they will have no one to leave the children with. However, they nevertheless sent a complaint to the municipality with a demand to investigate and restore order.
The municipal leisure company, which runs the after-school group where the incident occurred, said all three employees had been suspended pending the outcome of the investigation. The company assured that it will not tolerate violence.
