For example : According to the Decision of the Ministry of Science and Education , the summer school holidays 2024 in Croatia begin on Monday, June 24, 2024. But before this date there are two days when schools are closed – Saturday and Sunday.

Interesting fact! During the discussion of the school holiday schedule in 2024-2025 at the Ministry of Science and Education of Croatia, many spoke in favor of starting summer holidays from June 13, 2025. This is due to the June heat. It is expected that many children will be absent from school starting Sunday, June 13, 2025. Parents do not want children to remain in classrooms without air conditioning.
