Now that we are starting a new year, it is time to start planning for the future and with it your vacations! We tell you when there will be long weekends and which official holidays there will be in 2025.
We recommend you to take out your agenda, because we will also include in this note the days when children will not have classes according to the calendar of the Ministry of Public Education (SEP).

When will the kids’ vacations be in 2025?
Now let’s go with the little ones. The SEP calendar for the 2024-2025 school year indicates that classes begin on January 6, so they will only have vacation from January 1 to 3, 2025.
On the other hand, Easter vacations will take place from April 14 to 25. And finally, the school year will end on July 16, so you can start planning your summer vacations from that date.
