to think asth kids have been off so long they shouldnt have feb half term

[dustycups]

thats it really. only gonna seem like they back 5 minutes

only 2 days locally
schools are setting work from what i can see

uhm, it is another 5 weeks until half term. That is quite a bit of time, especially for the little ones.
If they don't have half term and go straight through until the Easter holiday then they will go 12 weeks without a break. Too much surely, especially for primary school children?

they only missed two days here, anyway lots of activites already planned for half term. would be very expensive if they were cancelled!

Yup, we went back to school today, so the children only had 2 days off for the snow. Therefore I see no reason for them to not have half term.

That's a ridiculous suggestion.

It's still 5 weeks away, and the staff deserve a break too. And where would the money come from to pay all the support staff to work that extra week?

A few days playing in the snow isn't going to make them lose the ability to use a key skill such as omission apostrophe is it?

Even if it did, it wouldn't hinder them much as I'm sure you'd agree.

its just we have had 3 days of already round here and r suggesting that we prob wont get them back in monday either. yeah i get your point about the kids getting tired but it just seems that they are off school so much.

sorry i think i have servere cabin fever, just ignore me
