When to keep your child at home
How sick is too sick? There are three main reasons to keep sick children at home:
- Your child doesn’t feel well enough to take part in normal activities. For example, your child is overly tired, fussy or won’t stop crying.
- Your child needs more care than teachers and staff can give while still caring for the other children.
