About this calendar
December is the start of summer and the end of the school year in Australia. Schools break up in the middle or second half of the month, depending on the state, Christmas Day and Boxing Day are public holidays everywhere (Proclamation Day in South Australia), and many workplaces close until the new year.

Tips
- Untick everything except public holidays for a clean wall calendar, or tick it all for a family planner.
- Teachers can tick Term week numbers to see Term 2 Week 5 at a glance on the month pages.
- Use one colour per person on the large month pages.
- Check the list of holidays against your own region or workplace: show days and some part-day holidays only apply in some places.
Common questions
Are the holidays and school terms right?
They were copied from each government's own pages on 31 October 2026 (30 October for the national pages), and the links are listed on each page. Where a date has not been published yet, the calendar says so instead of guessing.
Why are there no school terms for the UK or the US?
In those countries, term dates are set by each council, district or school, so there is no single list to print. The month pages leave room to write them in.
Can I print a single month?
Yes. Choose A single month, pick the month and press Print.
