4. Eight public holidays in Britain:
In addition to the three major holidays of British universities, Britain also has several major public holidays like China. Although British universities do not have separate holidays during these holidays, they can participate in many local celebrations during this period, which is also a very interesting experience for British students.

2. What can I do during my study abroad holiday in the UK?
1, studying in the UK.
Britain has mysterious castles, fairy-tale parks, fantastic beaches, sacred and ancient churches, quiet and peaceful villages and so on. There are too many places worth visiting, and you will always find a yearning beauty, a fascinating beauty, and a feeling that cannot be expressed in words.
2. Take a part-time job while studying in the UK.
Although the economy is in recession now, industries like restaurants and supermarkets still need a lot of manpower. Some students around me are not prepared to return to China and use the long vacation to work. Without the pressure of courses and papers, it will be relatively easier.
1) Chinese tutor
Students who are good at English and Chinese can choose to give Chinese lessons to local foreign children. Because our motherland is becoming stronger step by step, more and more foreign children are learning Chinese. The job requirements of Chinese tutor have become higher.
2) Service posts in shopping malls and supermarkets
Sales, cashier and other waiter industries are very easy to enter, but it may take a lot of time and energy, but it is a good job for international students who don't have much other skills or are usually introverted. This job can help you integrate into British society more quickly.
3) Working in China City
Studying in the UK may require some work skills, but it doesn't include waiters in China restaurants. This kind of work may make the environment easier to adapt to, or alleviate homesickness. Moreover, the wages in China City are generally higher.
3. Use the UK study holiday to recharge.
Most schools and libraries don't close during the summer vacation, and they go to school occasionally. The school is empty and there are not many people. No one grabs the instruments and equipment that a person arbitrarily occupies, and there is no need to queue up. This feeling is so cool. You can also review what you left behind last semester.
In addition, like many international students, they choose to go back to China. Although it is only two months, it is still very useful to be able to practice in a domestic company and accumulate some experience to pave the way for future career development.
