If I understand your meaning correctly, I would say: I would like to inform you that I will be on vacation from Thursday 13th until Thursday 18th February and I will need your help to ensure the smooth running of the office in my absence. 'I would like to inform you' is a very formal way of saying it. Who is this letter directed to?

Hi!

Yes, to my colleagues. Maybe less formal? What you think?

Yes, I think less formal would be better. How about:

I am writing to let you know that I will be away on holiday from Thursday 13th until Tuesday 18th February and I would like to ask for your help in ensuring the smooth running of the office whilst I am away.
