OK Paul...;)
if I remember this correctly ( it happened 41 years ago) the newspaper had a contest about "How did you spend your winter holidays"
In Sweden there is a school break for a week in late February-Early March called "Sportlov" "Sports Holidays"which means that the kids should go skiing, skating or just tumble around in the snow.
