Counted as the earliest school-holiday start among the 25 schools tracked here. Schools in Hong Kong do not share one calendar, so the school that breaks first is not the city breaking — check the table below for each school's own dates.

Breaks side by side

Each cell shows the dates that break runs for that school. Empty means the school's published calendar does not list that break — it may still close, but we have no date.

All schools in Hong Kong

Each school links to its own page, which links to the school's published calendar. The report link sends the school and its source URL to us with the correction.

Source and data

This page restates 25 separate calendars, collected from each school or its authority and published as one dataset at /data/schools-compact.json. It is not one Hong Kong calendar, so this page has no single source: every school below links to its own.

Data collected for this dataset. It is the date the whole dataset was collected, not a per-school verification date: a school may have published its dates earlier, and any of these calendars can change after it.

School calendars are published by each school or its authority and can change mid-year. Confirm before booking travel.

Found a date that is wrong, or a school that has republished its calendar? Report a date error or source change — name the school in the details, or use the per-school report link in the list above so that the school's own source URL travels with the report.

Looking for the official Hong Kong region calendar rather than individual schools? Browse all 349 schools or use the region pages from the navigation above.
