The Punjab government has announced twenty days of winter vocations for schools across the province which will start on December 20, 2024, and run until January 10, 2025.
Provincial Secretary of Education 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.
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. Schools will reopen on January 11, 2025, marking the resumption of regular classes.
Teachers are expected to 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.
