Just wondering if anybody can tell me what the school terms are in NZ and when the school year begins and ends?

The reason I ask is that we moved from England to Scotland a couple of years ago and the school terms are slightly different up here. I know we're a long way from moving yet but we're trying to make sure we arrive at the best possible time for our boys.

Thanks.

Marie, are these secondary school dates you're talking about? My girls have considerably shorter holidays than that! Is there a difference between primary and secondary school?
