When is the half term in London?

[2nervesleft]

We are visiting London during our half term on 20th to 22nd February. Will local schools be off then?
Am thinking of visiting Natural History Museum and need to prepare myself if there will be crowds of 9 yr old boys!

[foxinsocks]

we are 19th to 23rd (sw london) but I have heard some schools in se london are the week before

[Marina]

Yes, we're off next week over in Greenwich/Bexley, hurrah

[Aloha]

We are off next week.

[saadia]

yes, starts 19th Feb here in NW London.

[foxtrot]

we are next week (Surrey) so that should keep the crowds down a bit

[2nervesleft]

Oh, was hoping you were all next week so we could have London to ourselves.

[wurlywurly]

have just checked on this website and the local school will be on half term as well

[wheresthehamster]

Bet the travel companies have all bases covered.

[Hallgerda]

Lambeth and Sutton both start 19th

[mysonsmummy]

hounslow borough west london are off then 19th - 26th feb.

[Bink]

A lot of the places doing special events seem to be aimed for the week starting Mon 19th - so presumably that is the most usual week.

My two are off next week, but in both cases their schools have hinted that they've made a mistake & it should have been the week after!

Upshot is that you'll get kids on half-term during both weeks.
