Function Leave Letter
Even if you are invited to a function which falls during the week, attending it shouldn’t be a problem unless you have to travel out of the city for it. If so, taking a leave from work is your best bet, and here we will show you how to write a function leave letter, along with providing samples and a template to work on.
Once done, you simply have to submit the letter to your human resources department or run it by your supervisor for approval.
Tips for Writing a Function Leave Letter
- Give some details about the function (what it’s about etc).
- Explain why you need a leave to attend it (travelling, organizing etc).
- Clearly state the dates for your leaves and when you plan to rejoin work.
- Submit the letter well before time for approval.

Dear Mr. Gerard,
I would like to request a 2-day leave to attend my nephew's first birthday. Since my brother lives in Ireland and I will need to travel from London to attend the function on January 4.
There are no urgent tasks pending with me, but I am still putting Terry Richard in charge while I am gone. Even then, if my assistance is required, I will be reachable via phone and e-mail.
If my request is approved, I will back to work on January 6.
Thank you for your consideration.
Regards,
(Signature)

Dear Sir,
I am a 1oth grade student and my Student Number is 12345, I would like to request one day off on May 21 to attend the birthday of my brother’s first son. I have to travel out of the city, and need the leave for traveling to the function and back.
I have spoken to Mr. Harris, who is my teacher, and he has no problems with me taking a day off because I have had perfect attendance in classes from the start of the semester.
I hope you will approve my leave.
