Note: A term dates calendar for 2013 will not be available as there is no one calendar which would apply to all public schools.
Please contact your school directly for more information about its specific dates.
- All students start the school year on Monday 4 February and end the school year on Thursday 19 December.
- There are seven school development days during the year where students do not attend.
- Two of these days are before the school year starts for students and one day is after the school year ends for students.
- Each school schedules another four days throughout the year in consultation with its school council/board and school community.
- Each school can trade off the school development day at the end of the year (Friday 20 December). Teachers should confirm arrangements for this school development day with the school.
- Schools are not required to open on Easter Tuesday 2 April. However, country schools may open on this day and substitute another day for local agricultural shows with approval of school councils/boards and regional executive directors.
- Labour Relations intranet has details of start and end year dates for each occupational group.
