We break on Wednesday lunchtime next week, for eight full weeks this year.

next year is just under 6 weeks!

looking forward to it but I currently have everyone home with a sick bug. On my only pre summer catch up day.

is everyone eight weeks this year or is it one of those funny local things.

Next Friday.

We're 6 full weeks plus two in service days. The six week holiday is so much more manageable than when it used to be nearly 8 weeks, a couple of years ago (moved to two weeks at October instead).

SkeletonBatsflyatnight · 17/06/2025 19:17

We've got two and a half weeks to go yet. Everyone seems all hot and bothered already. Then 6 weeks off. Next year I believe it's 7 weeks.

RaraRachael · 17/06/2025 19:24

Friday 27th.
7 weeks this year instead of usual 6

PurpleThistle7 · 17/06/2025 20:01

Thursday 26th at midday just to mess with me.

Pineapplewaves · 17/06/2025 20:19

Thursday 3rd July for 6 weeks plus 2 in service days.

whiterabbity · 17/06/2025 20:21

Next Wednesday lunchtime for 8 weeks as well.

HappierTimesAhead · 17/06/2025 20:22

Thursday 26th June at 1pm which is a particularly random time to finish

AmyDuPlantier · 17/06/2025 20:25

I don’t know 🤣 Early July I think!

museumum · 17/06/2025 20:28

Next Thursday. We get one day short of seven weeks this year.

Wonder if you’re near me…

the Thursday 1pm finish is really doing my head in!

jesihar · 17/06/2025 21:06

Part of me is excited about the eight weeks but my inner stress head has been thrown by them being off now so I cannot sort my life out beforehand. Not that I ever would have but the thought was there!

we are still one week October. Not sure why so long this year.

Thursday 26th at 3.15pm for us in the pre-school (school finish slightly earlier or later time wise )
6 weeks and a day holiday since it’s a Thursday finish. Then 2 in-service days.
This has been a very long term for us. New staff, new children and an Hmie inspection. Plus the usual transition events etc.
Cannot wait.

JackJarvisEsq · 19/06/2025 10:52

Finish Wednesday at 1 (random) for 7 weeks

MiddleAgedDread · 19/06/2025 12:10

Thursday 26th June, go back Wed 13th August in state schools
Independent finishing Friday 27th June (at lunchtime) but don't go back until Wed 20th August.

MiddleAgedDread · 20/06/2025 09:11

Are you in one of the areas that has 2 weeks at October half term @cornflourblue

RaraRachael · 20/06/2025 10:19

We have 2 weeks in October and are finishing on Friday 27th. We normally have 6 weeks in summer but every 6 years we get 7 which is this year.

jesihar · 20/06/2025 12:26

We have only ever had a week in October here, but do get three days November.

25 June-20 august are the dates.

Yes we are. I known it all evens up but it does feel a very late start to the holidays this year, especially as they finish at lunchtime on a Tuesday! We'll probably bunk off camping the last couple of days if the weather plays ball.

stargirl1701 · 20/06/2025 17:55

Thursday! It’s a 7 week Summer this year! Woohoo!

MissEloiseBridgerton · 20/06/2025 18:02

Next Friday! Back on 20th August. 7 weeks and 2 days... It's just one week and 2 days too long 🤪
