One of the arguments I heard on the tele for shortening the summer holidays was that the kids lose momentum on their learning with such a long break.

I take this point on board, but I really feel let kids be kids, they learn such a lot playing out on their bikes etc in the summer. My 6 year old is taking his bike apart at the mo, learn how to use a screw driver, tools etc. .... that you just dont get at school.

Once I have worked out my working arragements I like having them at home, and its easier in the summer when the weather is ok, rather then in the p**sing down rain earlier on in the year.
