Holiday time and winter vacation for primary and secondary school students 2023

The winter vacation time for primary and secondary school students is from June 7, 2023 to February 65, 438+02.

The origin of students' summer vacation is that teachers in ancient private schools gave students a holiday because it was too hot in summer. Later generations combined with the 24 solar terms, Song called the school holiday summer vacation, and the tradition of summer vacation continued. The origin of students' winter vacation is because there are many activities and ceremonies in the ancient Spring Festival. No one will teach at this time, and the second is that people will have a family reunion during the Spring Festival.

Winter vacation is accompanied by the reform of the education system in the late Qing dynasty, which is the product of the spread of western learning to the east. Establishing a new school like the West may be accompanied by the arrival of Western Week and winter and summer vacations. Since most westerners are religious and go to church on weekends, they should rest as usual. So after the school was founded in China, it became a rule to have a holiday on weekends.

Winter vacation refers to the holidays during winter 1 and February. In China, schools usually divide each school year into two semesters. The last semester in autumn begins in September, and around the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, the school begins to have a holiday, and the winter vacation ends after the Lantern Festival. At this time, it is the winter in our country, and the turn of September is called winter vacation.

Holidays generally last about 1 month. However, in the cold northeast high latitude areas of China, sometimes it takes about 45 days, and many even take about two months. Because winter is too cold, and the Spring Festival is also in February in winter, we have a winter vacation on holidays.

The significance of the existence of winter and summer vacations

Students are growing up, long-term mental fatigue is harmful to growth, and children need physical rest. Besides, as far as knowledge is concerned, there is little knowledge in books, and the more important sources of knowledge are society and nature. Students can use holidays to help the society, enrich their experiences, get close to nature and cultivate their sentiments.

Every year, students are promoted to a higher grade. During the holidays, students can preview new courses and subjects for the next semester (for example, physics and chemistry are offered in the third grade of junior high school, which is a four-year junior high school system). Teachers can also use the holidays to familiarize themselves with the subjects of the next semester, prepare teaching plans and further study. Schools can also use holidays to adjust the teaching staff.
