There's no continent where this is a set policy among all governments, so I'll assume you meant "country."
In the United Kingdom, Germany, and many other European countries, many schools have six-week breaks, which is somewhat controversial; many parents, teachers, and politicians feel that the break is too long. In the United States, however, summer break is even longer, averaging around 10-11 weeks. Of course, private schools often set much shorter breaks, and some public school districts have implemented shorter breaks to try to minimize the downtime between learning sessions.

Vacation Bible School. It refers to the fact that you are out of regular school, on your vacation. [FireIron4] the person who answered above is an idiot Vacation Bible School is not what is explained above...Vacation Bible School is something that churches do for the kids in the church...in fact just last week my AWESOME church First Baptist Church had Vacation Bible School Monday-Friday...at Vacation Bible School we sing songs like ''One True God'', ''The Lords Plans'', ''Children Of God'' and many, many more...we also do crafts, have a snack, learn about God, but, we didn't go entirely about God, we learned about Joseph and how his brothers threw him in a well..and all of that stuff...Vacation Bible School is something churches do for the kids..not what you explained...Get it right or don't even answer especially for stuff about the lord The above response is not a very good example of a true Christian, but let's leave that for now. A good Christian would not carelessly call someone else an "idiot". Actually, the first response is perfectly correct, as "Vacation Bible School" originally came about in the summer time when kids were out of 'regular', or state-run, school. Church leaders figured they had as much right as the state to brainwash young minds, so they started up schools in the churches (mostly fundamental Christian, but not all-there are summer schools in Jewish temple as well).
