Controversial influencer Sarah's Day slams her son's school after she was scolded for pulling the six-year-old out of classes for a family trip to Fiji

Sarah's Day has slammed her six-year-old son Fox's school after she pulled him out of classes for a family trip to Fiji.
The lifestyle YouTuber, 32, whose real name is Sarah Stevenson, is currently on a lavish getaway for her mother's 60th birthday.
But it seems things went awry on the first day of their holiday as the mother-of-three received an email from her son's school saying he 'wasn't approved' to go on leave.
Sarah shared the ordeal with her followers as she posted a posting a photo of her boys Fox and Malakai, three, watching a performance in Fiji.
'When Foxy's school emails you and says his "leave hasn't been approved" and it's important for him to be at school learning,' she wrote in the caption.

But Sarah's commentary on the matter didn't end there, as she later uploaded another series of videos calling out the school.
'A few weeks ago before we left for Fiji, I had to apply for leave [at the school] if you're going for more than three days, so I did that,' Sarah explained.
'I filled in this extended leave form. I talked to the receptionist and she said, "You just have to send us proof of your flights." So, I sent in proof of my flights.
'They responded via email saying "sweet we've got everything we need for this getaway." I said this is [Fox's] grandma's 60th trip. It's really important.
'He's only missing five days of school. Anyway, day one of the trip I get an email back. We're at the airport, and it says Fox's leave hasn't been approved.
'Yes, I want him to learn how to read and write and be in a classroom, but I haven't pulled him out of school for a month.
'Anyway, whatever. I responded and I was like, "Okay, well we're at the airport. Thanks I guess." Whatever. Love school.'
Sarah and her husband Kurt Tilse welcomed their third child together last year.

She shared photographs from her at-home labour on her Stories at the time, writing in the caption: 'And so it began.'
In the Polaroid pictures, Sarah could be seen cradling her baby bump as she sat on an exercise ball and drank a hot beverage.
Another picture showed her in labour at her home as she leaned on her couch while she was supported by a midwife.
A final black-and-white picture featured her two older sons smiling as she documented her third baby boy's arrival.
Sarah and Kurt named their third son Harlow Judah.

A Place In The Sun's Amanda Lamb, 53, shows off her figure in a bikini as she goes makeup free during sun soaked holiday

A Place In The Sun 's Amanda Lamb showed off her figure during her sun soaked holiday on Thursday. The TV presenter, 53, looked incredible in a brown bikini and went makeup free for a day by the pool. Sharing an update to Instagram, she gave an insight into her first three days and revealed she had travelled solo with four children in tow. Amanda shares two daughters with her husband Sean McGuinness; Willow, 16, and Lottie, 12, who each brought a friend along for the trip. She captioned the post: 'Flying solo on holiday. 1 parent 4 kids (2 I've birthed 2 I've acquired) … how many of you holiday on your own with your children? How do you find it? 'The first time I tried it I was terrified… thought I'd be judged, thought I wouldn't be able to entertain them and make them happy and I'd taken away their idea of the perfect family holiday.' Amanda continued: 'This is my fourth trip and now I can proudly say I'm nailing it…I've stopped trying to create the 'Boden catalogue perfect vacation' now I go with the flow. 'This year I've bankrupted myself and let them both bring a friend.. total game changer… we're now day 3 in and after the initial first day of not knowing what's hit us we've all found our rhythm. 'Uno a** whooping, buffet carnage, Aqua aerobics and star gazing on the beach. The kids are happy and therefore I am too.. 'If you're embarking on a solo parent trip for the first time.. have faith. It is weird, it isn't perfect but perfect is dull.. deep breaths, and allow yourself and the ones you love to just be for a while.' Amanda had modelled in the 90s but it was after becoming the main presenter of A Place In The Sun in 2001. The presenter left the show in 2009 around the time she was pregnant with her daughter Willow Rose. Speaking previously to the Daily Express, she said: 'It was all, sort of, quite organic because I was pregnant with Willow, and A Place in the Sun didn't get recommissioned, so they didn't want it for a couple of years. 'And by the time it came back, Willow was three and a half, and she was in nursery, and I had a load of other commitments.' She added: 'I just thought, I'm not taking her out of nursery, I'm not taking her out of school, I'm not leaving her for three weeks at a time. So the decision was kind of made for me.' The snaps came after Amanda revealed she enforces a 10pm 'tech' curfew for her family, forcing them to submit their mobile phones to her bedroom until the next day. She confessed she put the disciplinary measure in place so her husband Sean and two children Willow and Lottie, wouldn't be consumed by excessive screen time. During a conversation with Closer magazine, the star from Hampshire revealed details of the strict regime, which she said she implements five days a week - from Sundays to Thursdays. 'I'm a stickler for no screens at night,' she said. 'Everyone has to bring their devices up to my room at 10pm, and then they're all allowed them again in the morning.' She added: 'It's a constant battle, but the curfew is there to make sure they're not up all night and taking in too much blue light'.

I want to go on holiday before I start chemotherapy – but no company will insure me

Dear Gill, I have recently undergone bowel surgery and a hysterectomy to remove jelly-like lumps associated with pseudomyxoma peritonei (PMP) cancer, which starts in the appendix. It's likely I'll need chemotherapy this autumn so I am desperate to go on holiday, either a last-minute Caribbean cruise or a beach holiday in the Algarve. However, I am struggling to find travel insurance because PMP is a rare cancer and doesn't screen. I'm happy for the insurer to exclude cancer, but I would like to have cover for an accident and the associated repatriation. Can you help me find cover? – Sophie Jones Dear Sophie, It has become easier to find specialist travel insurers willing to cover someone with a cancer diagnosis, though it does depend on the treatment stage and the severity of the disease. A 'fitness to travel' letter from an oncologist is a pre-requisite for cover. A Caribbean cruise is the most expensive holiday for which to obtain cover if you have health conditions. This is due to the high cost of being flown to Florida for treatment. Cover for a two-week trip for Sophie would cost around £3,000 so I suggested she stick to Europe, taking either a land-based or a cruise holiday. Most insurers now require customers to start by filling out an online health screening which is a tick-box exercise. If the medical score is low enough a quotation is generated; if the score is high you will need to speak to a call centre agent trained to conduct enhanced screening before a decision is made. Sophie decided to spend a week in Portugal before her chemo started and, at my request, contacted several insurers which specialise in this area. Freedom Travel Insurance (01223 446914) offered her a single-trip policy to Portugal for £73.34 after speaking to an agent. The policy would cover her Type 1 diabetes and her current cancer diagnosis with a £2,500 cancellation limit. At Free Spirit (02392 419 080), part of the highly regarded P J Hayman insurance group, Sophie was able to purchase a similar policy online without referral to an agent as her particular cancer, PMP, was on the drop-down list. The policy cost £74.26, with a £3,000 cancellation limit. A spokesman for Free Spirit told me that taking a holiday between diagnosis and the start of chemotherapy or radiotherapy is seen as lower risk by insurers, compared to taking a break during chemo when your immune system is less robust. Other insurers specialising in policies for those with health conditions – and also with no upper age limit – include Just Travel Cover (0800 294 2969) and All Clear (0800 848 8608). Your travel problems solved Gill takes on a different case each week – so please send your problems to her for consideration at asktheexperts@ Please give your full name and, if your dispute is with a travel company, your address, telephone number and any booking reference. Gill can't answer every question, but she will help where she can and all emails are acknowledged.

Michael O'Leary says Ryanair summer bookings remain strong

Ryanair is seeing strong demand across Europe with bookings ahead of last year, and is "reasonably optimistic" about hitting its summer targets, chief executive Michael O'Leary said in an interview on Thursday. He also praised Boeing for agreeing to deliver some jets earlier than scheduled, ending a run of delays that have curbed Ryanair's growth rate. Advertisement "We're seeing strong bookings through the peak summer months ... The fares are holding up," O'Leary said, adding that bookings were about 1 per cent ahead of the same point last year. He repeated a forecast from July that average fares were likely to recover almost all of a 7 per cent decline seen in the July-September quarter last year, when Ryanair was hit by consumer caution and a dispute with some online travel agents. Hitting the summer target will depend on close-in bookings for the remainder of the airline's key second quarter, which ends on September 30th, he said. There has been no sign of consumers changing their plans due to heatwaves this summer, O'Leary added. But he warned that US tariffs would ultimately act as a drag on global growth. Advertisement "I think everybody is cautious at the moment, and we're right to be cautious," he said. Boeing, which is due to deliver the final 29 aircraft of Ryanair's current order of 737 Max jets this winter, has agreed to deliver seven jets in August and seven in September, ahead of an earlier-agreed schedule. "Boeing are doing a terrific job," O'Leary said. He was speaking in Tirana, where he announced a doubling of capacity to four million passengers per year with the basing of three aircraft at the airport from next April. He described Albania as a hidden jewel of the Adriatic. Advertisement Ryanair, Europe's largest airline by passengers, also announced plans to increase capacity serving Sweden by 25 per cent for this winter, adding eight new routes, after the country scrapped its aviation tax at the beginning of last month. That will add to pressure on local rivals such as SAS and Norwegian Air. Ryanair chief marketing officer Dara Brady called on Sweden also to freeze airport charges and potentially offer additional incentives for growth, saying this could allow Ryanair to double its Swedish traffic by 2030. "The market is well capable of growing significantly here over the next number of years," Brady told a news conference.
