As a point of departure, the City of Aarhus does not operate with closing days at daycare level. In the event of potential closing days at department level, for instance in the course of summer, the daycare offer must continue to offer care for those of the daycare institution's children who will still need care. Thus, there will be an opportunity for alternative daycare in the event of potential closing days at department level.
A closing day is an ordinary weekday on which a department will be closed – partly or completely. Ordinary weekdays are all days except for Saturdays, Sundays and statutory holidays.
- Closing days must be placed on days on which attendance among the children is poor.
- They are days on which many parents and children will take a day off, and only few children will require daycare.
- On closing days, we offer alternative daycare for children who need it.
Typical closing days can be
- The days before Easter
- The day after Ascension Day
- Constitution Day (5 June)
- Weeks 29-30
- 23 December
- 24 December
- 27-31 December
The individual daycare institutions shall decide the number of closing days at department level. They do so pursuant to the guidelines in force.
It shall be up to the individual daycare's responsibility to notify the parents of the dates of closing days and at which of the daycare offer's departments there will be alternative daycare for the children. The daycare offer must notify the parents well in advance.
If you have questions about your department's closing days, please contact the pedagogical head of the department.
