School holidays
 

When are the easter holidays? Are they the two weeks coming?

I have a month off so I am a bit lost as to which of these weeks are school holidays.

Thanks

Schools generally have two weeks off for Easter don't they?

Re: School holidays
 

not any more.....

Rhyddings are off this Friday & Monday, then they break up for the 2 week end of term holiday on Friday 4th April

Re: School holidays
 

So they're off two days, then they go back for two weeks, then its end of term holidays for two weeks. Have I got that right?

Re: School holidays
 

Norden in Rishton is the same. I have been told it is because Easter is early this year and they have to have so many weeks in between each term, hence the end of term falls later this year. I don't remember having so many holidays when I was at school, but I guess we must have done!

Re: School holidays
 

Yep - that's right, think it's because Easter falls quite early this year.

Sounds about right, it's back to normal next year ;

Blackburn schools broke up today for two weeks, they go back on April 7th

Re: School holidays
 

Thats becuse they don't come under LCC, they're on their own so they can do what they want

Re: School holidays
 

After the kids have the two weeks in april they break up again and are off on the 2nd may....and 5th may!, another bank holiday!!:eek:..........we didnt have this many holidays when i was at school!

Re: School holidays
 

yep they are!! We are off on hol's on the 1st May, and I noticed they were off school for a couple of these days.

When did it change to a 3.15pm finish to a school day?
School finished at 4pm when I went -it is the same as having half a day a week knocked off learning time.

Majority of them are 3pm these days.
