Help needed

    Looking for some advice, Could someone help me out with a dilema. Have a daughter in school(Senior infants) and one year old at home.

    Due to go on holidays in two weeks, have saved long and hard for this holiday. There has been a case of chickenpox in the the other senior infants class, have been told of another possible case.

    Seeing that we are due to fly in two weeks our concern is our daughter is going to bring infection back to house.

    Under normal circumstances it would'nt bother us because they are going to get it at some stage. But the fact that if the kids get it they cant fly or if it is incubating they will get it on holiday and we will be stuck abroad(Airlines dont let you travel with chickenpox) There are other family members travelling with us so it wouldnt only be our holiday ruined.

    Has anybody had any experience of taking a child out of school for similar issues....What line would the school take if you were to take the child out of school early?

    Any advice would be much appreciated.smile.gif

    Hi Lilypie, I doubt if school will have an issue, but all you can really do is hope. As far as I know chickenpox incubates for 9-12 days before spots appear and are infectious until the spots crust over, so as your child has already been in contact at school, it is in the lap of the gods now. You might be lucky, don't stress too much, easy for me to say I know, enjoy your hols.
