In SmartCentral children Rooms are used to group children together whether they are in physically separate rooms or just in logical groupings.
In either event rooms can be set up in a variety of ways so that:
its easier to distinguish children on the roll (age groups)
manage staff time sheets (ratio calculator)
group together children under taking the same activity (VAC care)
There are several settings for a Room. They would normally only be set as the room is first created.
