Yes, we finish at lunchtime at Christmas too. Though in effect it's an extra day off for my two as it is Cathedral and we are atheists.... Easter and October end at normal time but Easter is effectively a half day because again it's cathedral.

Half day Thursday in Fife. My DD is P7 and has had stuff on every week for the past month and it feels more stressful than joyous!

LordPercy · 25/06/2017 10:50

School finishes on Thursday at lunchtime. Can't wait! Got to get through a stack of paperwork plus move room into the office next door. Staff are going out for lunch once we wave the kids goodbye which is a change and means we all will be out of school sharp. At home DS1 left S6 last month so only have one S5 and one P4 finishing school for the summer this year 🎉

JustCallMeKate · 25/06/2017 10:53

Finish at 1.15 on Friday and get on a flight at 5.30 on Friday Grin

EllaHen · 25/06/2017 14:51

Euphemia - we finish at 2.30pm at Christmas. Which is a bit shit if a Thursday or Friday since we finish at 2.50pm on those days normally.

I'm very jealous of the half day Fridays some authorities have. I'm a spent force by break on a Friday.

MacarenaFerreiro · 25/06/2017 15:13

Wednesday finish here in East Dunbartonshire. Can't wait. Kids staying at Primary found out about classes for next year on Friday.

AmIthatbloodycold · 25/06/2017 15:16

Thursday at lunchtime. That's me ok longer a parent of a school child now

Demented, don't send them in on Friday. GrinGrin

sugarmonster64 · 25/06/2017 15:19

@dementedma I'd check as I think it's Thursday at lunchtime for Perthshire.

AmIthatbloodycold · 25/06/2017 15:26

It is, Sugar, although Kinross is definitely not in PerthshireWink

Allyg1185 · 25/06/2017 15:28

sodablackcurrant · 25/06/2017 15:39

11 year old finishes next Friday, back 28/8

14 year old finished 2 June, back 28/8.

CodenameDuchess09 · 25/06/2017 15:43

Wednesday at 1 here in North Ayrshire back on the 17th August.

weegiemum · 25/06/2017 15:53

Tuesday 1pm for us in Glasgow, we go back 15th August.

Been on new timetable for a few weeks so I now have an S3, an S4 and an S6! Just got to stop them killing each other for 7 weeks now!!

OvO · 25/06/2017 16:06

Friday at midday.

We finish at 12.25 every Friday anyway so even if it was a usual day it'd still be a half day!

Groovee · 25/06/2017 18:51

12pm on Friday for my 2. My contract ended last week so I get a week off to myself.

MrsRedFly · 25/06/2017 22:44

Thursday at 12.30 too! My DD's last a primary school (although they had done no work at all in P7!) Still got school show, leavers assembly, prom, dance at high school & church service to go ... Might need 6 weeks to recover before high school starts!

In Fife too...

Iggi999 · 27/06/2017 19:52

Friday. Can't help hoping the ones finishing on Tuesday at least go back before us!

FlipFlopsReady · 28/06/2017 10:53

DD goes back on Tuesday 15th August.

For now, she is perfectly content in her jammies and eating toast. Bliss.

And she found out her teacher is a trendy young Irish teacher with a guitar, so she's delighted!
