"2025 brings 11 public holidays and exciting long weekends, including National Day’s extended break on August 11."
Looking ahead to 2025, it’s helpful to understand how the Ministry of Education’s (MOE) term dates align with public holidays. The public holidays in 2025 will largely follow the same pattern as in previous years, so you can expect familiar dates for most major holidays.
There will be 11 gazetted public holidays, with Chinese New Year falling on January 29 and 30. These two days are considered separate, bringing the total to 11 holidays. It’s also worth noting that Hari Raya Puasa on March 31, 2025, is still subject to confirmation.
One notable change in 2025 is that National Day will fall on a Saturday. This means the following Monday, August 11, will be a school holiday, offering families a long weekend to enjoy. Be sure to look out for long public holiday weekends throughout the year, as these offer great opportunities to plan family trips or special activities.
