summer holiday
School's out period
Summer holiday is a period of vacation during the warmer months, typically referring to the extended break from school between academic years.
In British usage, summer holiday (or summer holidays) names what Americans call summer vacation: The children are home for the summer holidays.
It can also mean any leisure trip taken during summer: We're planning a summer holiday in Greece.
