Aibu to be really cross about this breakfast club situation?

My 3yo started at the school nursery on Thursday, his 5yo brother went into y1.
On Friday I put them into breakfast club as I had work.
School are still operating bubbles and all other restrictions (i am annoyed about this, although from a thread I posted the other day many disagreed with me).
Anyway it turns out my 3yo is the only child in the nursery bubble in breakfast club so they made him sit at a table on his own for the whole hour, while his brother sat the other side of the hall with his friends.
My eldest saw him crying asking for me and asked if he could sit with him but was told he wasn't allowed.
Only 2 staff work there and they both greeted us so no confusion over them being brothers, sounds like just taking the bubble rule to the extreme.
I cant work out if I am more devastated or bloody fuming about it.
Aibu to send an email to school asking them to use some common sense?
2 days in and 3yo already doesn't want to go back ☹

Secondly, play with what? We've had to disinfect toys and quarantine them for 3 days before using them in another bubble, anything that pair of siblings have played with is now out of commission for 3 days.

You disinfected them and quarantined them for 3 days?! That's bloody ridiculous.

I'm all for keeping people safe but that can't go on! Kids need germs!

Is there a board of governors? I wouldn’t be ok with my child being treated like this amd school ignoring guidance to choose to treat my 3yo like this.

Schools and wraparound settings don't have to contact trace anymore in England.

Disinfecting and then quarantining all equipment for 3 days is a tad excessive. What do you think the process of disinfecting does?
