Introduction to summer vacation:

Summer vacation refers to the school holiday time from July to August or 1 month to February, about one to two months, and the holiday time varies from hemisphere to hemisphere.

In China, schools usually divide each school year into two semesters. Last semester started in mid-August or early September, and ended around the end of the following year 1 month (or 1 mid-month, mostly 65438+1early October in Northeast China).

At this time, the school began to have a holiday. This holiday is a cold winter in China, and it is called winter vacation. Winter vacation usually ends on the fifteenth day of the first month.

The next semester begins in mid-February in spring (the 16th day of the first lunar month) and ends in early or mid-July, and the school begins to have a holiday again. This holiday coincides with the hottest summer in China, and the heat is pressing, so it is called summer vacation. At present, the summer vacation in most schools ends at the end of August, and in some places it ends in mid-August.

Brief introduction of summer vacation abroad:

1, Japan

In Japan, primary and secondary school students have summer vacation from late July to the end of August every year, while college students have a relatively long summer vacation. According to the different regulations of each school, most universities in Japan have holidays from late July to late September and from early August to late September.

In addition, in order to cater to Kogasawara Festival, most Japanese companies will take a week's summer vacation in August. However, due to the normal operation of the company during the holiday period, most companies let employees take any vacation in the first two weeks of August.

2. America

Schools in the United States start the new school year in September, so most schools start their summer holidays in mid-June, and students can enjoy 2-3 months' vacation.

3. Sweden

The summer vacation in Swedish schools also started in mid-June, and there was no summer homework. But in Sweden, schools start on the first Monday after August 20th.
