There will also be several children’s programs from April, with programs lasting from one to three hours. StarTimes says the ST Kids will change the schedule specially to fit younger kids ’hours.

Early in the morning, there will be a program for elementary school children, a series of children’s series before noon, and two hours of animation in the afternoon.

When we are in a state of emergency, we make it a point to deliver educational programs to our customers so that every child can continue to learn daily, safely and at home”.
