thanks for that kempie but can you explain the .2?
How do you calculate .2 of a day?

If you work an 8 hour day then 0.2 of a day = 0.2 x 8 = 1.6 hours (1 hour 36 minutes).

Eh? - what a strange concept.
They are not employed by anyone (unless employed by you!). So the question is not applicable.

They work all year round?

Schoolchildren currently receive 70 days holiday per year (paid at their usual earnings rate of £0.00 ph).
