Berlin’s autumn school holidays run from Monday 19 to Saturday 31 October 2026, so ten working days need an answer. Set your child’s Hort hours and your working day, then go through the two weeks one day at a time. The chart shows every hour of your working day that nobody is covering.
Your child’s holiday care
Your working day
Dates from the Berlin Ferienordnung 2024/25 to 2029/30 (Senatsverwaltung für Bildung, Jugend und Familie). Hort hours from the Berlin rules for ergänzende Förderung und Betreuung: grades 1 to 3 pay nothing and need no needs check for 7:30 to 16:00; early care from 6:00 and late care to 18:00 are booked modules; an open all-day school guarantees 7:30 to 13:30. Grades 4 to 6 pay an income-based contribution. Your own Hort may set its holiday hours differently, so check its holiday list. Checked on 2 October 2026.
