Its January and holiday deals are everywhere, but watch out so are term-time fines.
In this episode, we unpack the reality many families are facing right now: cheaper off-peak holidays versus strict school attendance rules.
We break down what the term-time holiday rules actually are, how fines work, and why a single week away can result in a penalty. But we also talk about family wellbeing and why peak season travel simply doesn’t work for every family ... even us!!
From guilt and judgement to fairness and flexibility we explore the messy middle, there’s no “right” choice, just the one that works best for your family.
As always, we share real talk, honest reflections, and invite listeners to weigh in with their own experiences.
Love
Jen & Marina
