Dubai’s private schools have officially announced their holiday schedule for Eid Al Adha, providing students and staff with a well-deserved break to observe and celebrate one of the most significant festivals in the Islamic calendar.
According to the announcement, private schools across the city will be closed from June 16th to June 19th, 2024. This break will allow families ample time to prepare for and enjoy the festivities associated with Eid Al Adha, also known as the “Festival of Sacrifice.” Schools will resume regular operations on June 20th, 2024.
Eid Al Adha commemorates the willingness of Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son as an act of obedience to God. It is marked by special prayers, charitable acts, and communal gatherings. The holiday is also an occasion for families to come together and share festive meals.
Parents and guardians are encouraged to take note of the holiday dates and make any necessary arrangements for their children during this period. Many schools have also reminded families to ensure that any pending assignments or school-related tasks are completed before the break begins.
This announcement follows the UAE government’s official declaration of public sector holidays, aligning private school schedules with those of the wider community. The coordinated break helps facilitate a unified celebration across the country.
For further details, parents are advised to check with their respective schools or visit the school’s official website.
