Strike announcement in Perpignan

The City of Perpignan has announced that a strike by ALAE staff is scheduled for Friday, October 16, 2026. ALAE is an organization that provides after-school care for elementary school children in France.

Impact on after-school care

The strike may disrupt the operation of elementary school after-school care structures, which usually accommodate children. These structures are essential for parents who rely on them for childcare after school hours.

School meals affected

School meals may not be provided during the strike period. This could affect children who depend on these meals as part of their after-school care experience.

Parents urged to find alternatives

Parents are being asked to try to find alternative childcare options for their children on after-school care slots, including meal services, for those who attend after-school care at elementary schools. This includes exploring other providers or arranging for family members to assist.

Information from school teams

They are encouraged to inform themselves with the educational teams of each school group. These teams can provide more specific details about the strike's impact and available alternatives at individual schools.
