Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Just got an email from SCGB and among other bits of (semi) useful information was this:

Christmas/New Year
Break up: 19 Dec
Go back: 5 Jan

Half Term
Break up: 13 Feb
Go back: 23 Feb

Easter
Break up: 3 Apr
Go back: 20 Apr

Thought it was worth re-posting as many need to know either to book or avoid those weeks snowHead

IncogSkiSno, I think that most (if not all) schools are having the same 1/2 term and Easter hols next year.

IncogSkiSno, The article says that most UK schools should be the same next year. The dates are probably most useful to those without kids who wish to avoid the busy periods, anyone with kids in school (which sadly still includes me) will need to check their specifics anyway.

Helen Beaumont, looking at that french document. It seems that the French schools split up on the 3rd July this summer. I thought there school summer holidays didnt start till August.

I'll be in the Alps in the last week of July. I imagine that will be rather busy. I thought their holidays started on the first week of August.

I have to go skiing in school holidays unfortunatly and we go away at christmas. So doesn't really affect, but thanks anyway Axsman.

These are right for Sussex - which has a recent history of doing things a bit differently.

The best site, IMHO, for pan-European information this season, was the website for the Resort That Cannot Be Named. No, not Resort X, the other one.

Axsman, Those dates are the same for us next year. It's going to be expensive for families going away in the Feb week Sad

No ,French schools have all of July and August off, it is the rest of France, i.e. the adults that take August off. Last week of July will indeed be busy.

I can't think why anyone would choose to go to a French resort that week in 2009 if they had any choice of destination. Surely there must be less hideously crowded options in one of the other alpine countries?

Helen Beaumont, I'm hoping it's not as I've booked for Zermatt that week. I suspect it isn't as the highest prices for accommodation with Interhome in Zermatt who I booked the apartment with are the following week.
