ds is in Primary 1 and has been doing half days since August. They are due to stay in till 3pm after October week.
On the school calendar it had 13th Oct - P1 stay for lunch. This is an introduction into lunchtime activities for after October week.
Last week a letter came home asking if child was staying for lunch/was a parent joining them/do they want a school meal or packed lunch.
So I said - Yes ds attending, parent no, packed lunch yes. Thought it was a bit strange that they were wanting parents there - surely this was sposed to promote independence and ds would love to hang out with the P2's rather than his mummy.
So today in their diary it has - children who do not have a parent attending lunch tomorrow - can they pick their child up before lunch at 12.15 as normal.
I had cancelled his after school care and organised to do an extra hours work and get him at 1.15.
So am pissed off that a. I have to go for him to be allowed to go and b. he'll be upset if he doesn't get to go - but then I get less work done.

Unsure if I should complain or attend lunch reluctantly
