This is the page of the QLD school holidays for 2021. QLD term breaks are 15-16 days in the autumn through spring, with around a 1 & a half month break in summer.
QLD School Holidays 2021 Term 1 (Autumn)
The Term 1 break is between 15-16 days, from the beginning of April to the middle.
Unless Good Friday happens to fall in March, the break will almost always include Good Friday and Easter.
Queensland is a pretty large state, so the temperature can fluctuate depending on where in the state you are.
On average, the weather in the autumn stays between the mid to high 20’s, leaving great weather for swimming, hiking and other outdoor activities!
It’s a wonderful opportunity to enjoy the break at one of Queensland’s many beautiful beaches!
