Missing out child from class photo

This morning when I dropped DS off at preschool they had laid out the class photo for parents to look at in order to decide if they wanted a copy. After looking twice I asked one of the teachers why DS wasn't in the photo. She was adamant that he was. I showed her the photo and she went a bit white. It's only a class of 12 with two teachers and two TAs that float between DS's class and another. All 4 staff members are in the photo. No DS. No explanation. I'm a bit miffed that he won't get a class photo but more concerned over his whereabouts during the photo. I'm not really sure what to do about it. Or if it's even worth causing a fuss over.

Sorry all, I forgot to update this thread. There is a simple explanation.

The day of photos we had our interview with the PrePrep. I didn't realise they wanted him to attend the interview and clearly this hadn't been communicated to the nursery (PrePrep owns the nursery) because they didn't know either. The school is split into two sites. Our interview was at the site that doesn't house the nursery. When we got there they asked us to go get him from the nursery site. This was the end of the day for him anyway. We popped over and collected him. The secretary had called ahead so he would be ready. They had him waiting in the hallway to be collected and hence be missed the photo which was apparently taken last thing on the day. I hadn't even remembered that it all was the same day and neither had the teacher. They had to look it up. Thankfully their records are better than my memory!

Glad it was nothing untoward.

That must have been quite a relief!
