When do you break up for half term?

We have an inset day on 24th October and am thinking about going to Legoland but not if it's going to be really busy because everyone else is already on half term. Please let me know.

we break up on 24th, so we would still be in school on that day.

We're in Yorkshire though so unlikely we'd be going to legoland anyway

We break up this Friday so would still be off on 24th - we are in North West though - nowhere near Legoland!

Here in Hampshire they break up on the 24th and many schools have an Inset day that day. So Legoland might be busy!

Thanks, think you might be right Sidge. Have been twice before but only when everyone else was at school. Are the queues really bad at half term?

I'm in Wokingham, about 8 miles from Legoland & we have the week after, Bracknell & Windsor & Maidenhead (neighbouring boroughs) are the same, but some schools may have inset days the Friday before (Wokingham's inset is the Monday after though)
