Are most people going on hols over Easter half term?

i mean even if it’s in this country?

Nope!

It's not half term. It's the Easter holidays.

No!

Is it is the Easter vac? Spring term’s over, summer term starts after Easter.

It is not half term. It is the Easter holidays. It is between the end of one term and the beginning of next one.

Half terms are a break in the middle of each term.

Nope! We usually do at least for a few days but not this time. I'm gardening, seeing friends and chilling (teacher, so off for 2 weeks) and the teenagers are pretty much doing their own thing. Dh has had a couple of days off and does again next week so we'll probably do a day trip somewhere.

Nope, we are stopping at home woth the odd day trip chucked in.
We are however away next month to France. Very excited!

Just for Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday next week. To the Lake District.

And it's not 'half term.' Half term was February. In the middle of the Spring term. THIS holiday is the Easter Holidays.

Cross post. I see some others pointing out it's not half term too!!! Why do people say this? Why do they call Easter half term?

Do you mean the Easter holidays? Yes, we’re in Cornwall & having a lovely time.

And yes, it's not half term. October, February, May are half term breaks.

We were supposed to but needed to save the money! So no we are in rainy England...although going to CP next month....

I don't understand what Easter half term is? .

We are at home this Easter holidays if that's what you mean. Usually we would go away but DSD has GCSEs this year so we have kept it low key with a few day trips instead

Had a long weekend last weekend in my inlawx holiday home ( they weren't there). It was lovely and apart from fuel, food and a few pints at the local, free!

Sadly not Dd is doing her GCSEs in 6 weeks so we are staying home depressingly

Avoid like the plague. Booked a long weekend next weekend and going off in our caravan to a farm in Cumbria.

Went to stay at in-laws for 2 nights. Been swimming threw stones in the sea. That's it! Nice charge of scenery. Can't afford any big holidays this year, booked 4 nights away in summer with our caravan.

Yes, Easter holidays is what I meant.

Going to stay with my partner for a few days. He's just finished work and is going back a week on Monday.

Change is as good as a rest.

Of course not. Not everyone can afford that.

oh ffs does it matter about the half term easter holidays thing! op is simply asking if people are going away for the break. We are not this year. Usually always have a few days away over the Easter break but not this year as dp couldn't get the time off work. why are you asking op?

Yes am there now! It's been a great week so far.

In Wales.

Enjoying that most people are answering more to point out it isn't half-term than answering the question. The pedantry is both pleasing and entirely appropriate!

We are currently but only because free accom!

Nope. Cant afford anything and even if I could, I'm knackered.

I'm going to play some online and board games (I'm never going to grow up no matter what the mirror tells me) and watch some films, read some books and just try and forget about work for a few.
