As the various holidays/recesses are not identical, we use the following definitions: 

Holidays: no activities required or compulsory for the study. This applies to periods when the buildings are closed. 

Recess: no scheduled education activities, but projects and resits/ examinations. This is the case during the autumn, spring, May- and summer break.
