What do your kids Think? My kids hating missing school once they were in secondary, especially years 9 onwards. I suggested missing one day once (added on to a half term holiday) and neither of them wanted to do that at all.

My kids wouldn’t miss school for a holiday.

They wouldn’t let me take them out of school.

Wouldn’t hesitate - special time to spend with your parents.
