November School Holidays: After the long holidays of Diwali and Chhath Puja in October, the month of November has once again brought joy to school students. Taking time out for relaxation and fun amidst the burden of studies is no less than a gift for children. Due to festivals, weekends and regional holidays, children are going to get a wonderful break from studies.
Students are expected to get a full nine days of vacation in November 2025. These vacations include religious festivals as well as weekends, which provide children with a little respite throughout the month. It is important to note that some holidays may be state-specific or local, so be sure to check your school’s official vacation calendar. This month is offering a great opportunity to strike the perfect balance between studies and fun.
