You would have thought should be at that point already - our school hasn't announced what they will do for fathers day but I know they have done breakfasts previously (and a quick google, shows a prevalence of the term "mothers day morning tea" and "fathers day breakfast" at many schools).
I am not sure if DD's school is particularly bad, or everywhere is like that. They have a terrible habit of putting reminders about things up as you go into the classroom - conveniently forgetting that quite a few parents don't take their child to school at 9:00am regularly, but use the wonderful OHSC, so these types of reminders are useless. Or they want stuff to be delivered to the office (not to the classroom) never mind that you are not at the school when the office (and often access to the office) is open (with older kids is ok as they can take to the office but with foundation they aren't allowed to wander to the office). Last term they organised an assembly for the hour after all the foundation students finished, and invited parents, but didn't specify what would happen if your child was going to OHSC - then the day before decided they would just change the time foundation finished to after the assembly but it was too late for us to cancel OHSC for that hour. They never give sufficient notice on things - I think a week is minimum should give for if they want you to come to something in the day. Is like they are completely blind to the fact on working parents and mums in particular exist.
