This calendar gives a lot of rest and time off. Which I am fully in support of as a parent!

It's great that they're giving JCs and MI students a different vacation schedule, reflecting exam needs.

The early start enables for adequate time to catch up on any work and prepare for a new academic year.

The long June break is good, but the March break feels too short to recover from the start of the year.
