Term Dates — 2025-2026
From Preschool to High School, students at St. Matthew enjoy exciting opportunities to thrive throughout the academic year. View the 2025–2026 school calendar below to stay updated on key term dates, school breaks, and upcoming events.
St. Matthew follows a Calendar B schedule, aligning our academic year with those of countries like the United States, Canada, and various European regions. This alignment enables students to participate in summer courses, camps, and exchange programmes in the northern hemisphere, offering valuable international exposure and enriching learning experiences. It also ensures seamless participation in exchange programmes without disrupting their studies.
Our academic year runs from August to June, in contrast to public schools in Colombia, which typically follow Calendar A (February to November).
