NSW hols are 6 weeks summer (encompasses christmas to end of Jan), 2 weeks easter, 2 weeks July and 2 weeks end of Sept/Oct and various "non-pupil days" for that read inset days, but not half as many as in England.
Ours have been back at school for 2 weeks now
but still got sent to bed early for fighting tonight, so glad to know its not just mine.

We were in Tangalooma at Christmas ( a small island just off Brisbane) it was like the bounty paradise advert, saw dolphins swimming along the shore etc etc, and what were my boys doing? aged 3 and 5, fighting, kicking and having huge tantrums the whole time we were there, all you could hear on the Island was a loud english mother screaming all the time!!!
Can I survive half term!!!
