How long is the summer break in both models? How long will breaks be between terms?

In either model, the summer break is estimated to be between 7–9 weeks from the end of the final term to the start of the next teaching term for the following year. Breaks between terms within the year will range from 1–4 weeks, depending on the calendar model selected.

The University of Newcastle acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands within our footprint areas: Awabakal, Darkinjung, Biripai, Worimi, Wonnarua, and Eora Nations. We also pay respect to the wisdom of our Elders past and present.
