Punjab winter holidays for schools: The Punjab government has officially announced the winter vacation schedule for schools across the province. The break will commence on December 20, 2024, and extend until January 10, 2025, providing students and staff with a well-deserved 20-day holiday.
Balanced Academic Calendar
Secretary Khalid Nazir Wattoo emphasized the importance of maintaining a balanced academic calendar, noting that the same dates will apply to both public and private schools in Punjab. This uniformity ensures that all students and educators can enjoy the break simultaneously, fostering a sense of community and shared experience.
Encouraging Productive Activities
Parents are encouraged to use the break not only for relaxation but also for productive activities. It’s an opportunity to spend quality time with children while promoting healthy habits during the cold weather. Parents are advised to limit screen time and instead encourage activities that foster learning, such as reading and skill development.
Reopening and Academic Focus
Schools will reopen on January 11, 2025, marking the resumption of regular classes. Teachers focus on revisiting the curriculum, preparing students for upcoming exams, and helping them stay on track with assignments. This winter break provides a much-needed chance for students, parents, and educators to rest and recharge before facing the academic demands of the new year.
