Consent form for travelling abroad with a minor

If you are travelling abroad with your child it's recommended that you have a Consent form for travelling abroad with a minor which is signed by the parent/guardian not travelling with the child.

You can either download and print a copy of this form here: Consent form for travelling abroad with a minor, or you can pick a paper copy up from the NSE (copies are on the Hive noticeboard above the radiator).

Warning Sirens - first Monday of the month

When are the public warning sirens tested?

All over the Netherlands, the public warning sirens are tested at exactly 12.00 noon on the first Monday of every month. The siren sounds for 1 minute and 26 seconds without interruption. This is a test signal so there is nothing to worry about. The sirens are never tested on a national or religious holiday or Remembrance Day, even if they fall on the first Monday in the month.
