NT School Holidays Terms
This is the page of the NT school holidays for 2022. NT term breaks are usually longer in the summer and winter while being shorter in spring and fall.
The fall break only lasts about 1 week and the spring break lasts 10 days. Meanwhile the summer break is almost 1 month and the winter break is nearly a month and a half.
NT School Holidays 2022 Term 1 (Autumn)
The Term 1 break is 1 week, typically the second week in April. As a result, it coincides with Good Friday and Easter a lot, but not all of the time.
Since this is NT’s autumn, it’s still mostly hot and humid in most of the state, so indoor activities will likely be more comfortable.
NT has some beautiful museums and memorials to make this 1-week break nice and relaxing!

As this term holiday includes Christmas, New Year’s and Australia Day, there’s a lot of good public holiday activities and great opportunities to enjoy them!

And if you don’t mind a little humidity, the wildlife and sceneries out in the nature parks come alive in the summer, providing views you won’t see anywhere else!

NT School holidays occur at different times of the year, and they may even be updated as the year progresses, so make sure to check back occasionally as the year progresses to stay up to date!
