The Queensland Government has announced a review of the spread and allocation of public holidays in Queensland, as well as the arrangements for student free days in state schools. This is something that QCPCA has long advocated for.
The government is seeking feedback on three proposals:
- spreading public holidays across the year
- allocating an extra public holiday when Christmas, Boxing, or New Year's days fall on a weekend
- extending the Easter state school holidays from six weekdays to two weeks, starting in 2012.
Feedback is due by Monday 31 October 2011
