WA School Holidays, Term Dates and Public Holidays 2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Planning your 2026 year around the school calendar? Here is everything Western Australian parents need to know about term dates, school holiday breaks and public holidays, confirmed for WA government schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2026 WA School Term Dates<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The 2026 Western Australian school year runs across four terms:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Term 1:<\/strong> 2 February to 2 April
Term 2:<\/strong> 20 April to 3 July
Term 3:<\/strong> 20 July to 25 September
Term 4:<\/strong> 12 October to 17 December <\/p>\n\n\n\n

These dates apply to Western Australian state schools. Independent and Catholic schools do base their terms on the state school dates, but their term dates can vary from school to school, so it is worth checking directly with your school for the correct information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2026 WA School Holidays<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The key Western Australian school holiday periods for 2026 are:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Autumn Holidays:<\/strong> 3 April to 19 April
Winter Holidays:<\/strong> 4 July to 19 July
Spring Holidays:<\/strong> 26 September to 11 October
Summer Holidays:<\/strong> 18 December 2026 to 31 January 2027 <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: In Western Australia, the end of year date for Year 12 students is a school-based decision. For many students, their last day of school is the day of their last exam. Contact your local school for further information. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

2026 WA Public Holidays<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In 2026, ANZAC Day falls on a Saturday, which means there is an additional public holiday on Monday 27 April 2026. Easter Sunday was established as a public holiday in Western Australia in 2022. Boxing Day also falls on a Saturday, so an additional holiday is observed on Monday 28 December 2026. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Note: Some areas of Western Australia observe the King’s Birthday holiday on a different date.Use the School Holidays for Maths Catch-Up<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The WA school holidays are the ideal time for students to consolidate Maths skills and get ahead before the next term starts. Whether your child is in primary school, working through the WACE pathway, or preparing for ATAR<\/a>, a few targeted sessions during the break can make a real difference to their results and confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At Mastering Maths Online, we offer flexible online Maths tutoring for students from Year 1 through to Year 12 across Western Australia. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
