Kapanlagi.com - The month of Ramadan 2025 is approaching, and the enthusiasm of students and parents is growing! Many are curious about when the early fasting holiday will begin this year. The early Ramadan holiday is a very valuable moment, as it is often used to prepare both physically and mentally before observing the fast. Therefore, knowing the holiday schedule well in advance is very important for families to plan various activities during this holy month.
The government has issued a Joint Circular (SEB) from 3 Ministers that establishes the early fasting holiday schedule for 2025. This letter not only regulates the holiday days but also the independent learning system for students during the early Ramadan period. This policy applies to all educational units in Indonesia, both public schools and madrasahs. With this arrangement, it is hoped that students can balance their learning obligations and worship effectively during the fasting month.
Moreover, the government has also set the long holiday schedule for Idulfitri 2025, providing students with the opportunity to rest longer and celebrate the holiday with their beloved families. So, when exactly does the early fasting holiday start? Check out the complete details below.
1. Early Ramadan Holiday 2025
Based on the SEB published on January 21, 2025, students will be on holiday for 7 days at the beginning of Ramadan, from February 27 to March 5, 2025. Although on holiday, students will still be assigned independent learning tasks that can be done at home, places of worship, or in the community.
Here is the complete schedule:
- Thursday, February 27, 2025: Holiday/Independent Learning
- Friday, February 28, 2025: Holiday/Independent Learning
- Saturday, March 1, 2025: Weekend Holiday
- Sunday, March 2, 2025: Weekend Holiday
- Monday, March 3, 2025: Holiday/Independent Learning
- Tuesday, March 4, 2025: Holiday/Independent Learning
- Wednesday, March 5, 2025: Holiday/Independent Learning
Students will return to school on Thursday, March 6, 2025, and will have full learning until just before Idulfitri. However, during the early fasting holiday, students are still expected to engage in independent learning according to the tasks assigned by the school.
"On February 27 and 28, as well as March 3, 4, and 5, 2025, learning activities will be carried out independently in the family environment, places of worship, and the community according to the assignments from the school/madrasah," as stated in the SEB of the 3 Ministers.
2. Student Activities During the Early Ramadan Break
Although there are no learning activities at school, students are encouraged to engage in beneficial activities during the early Ramadan break. Some recommended activities in the SEB 3 Ministers' directive include:
- Reciting the Quran, attending short Islamic boarding schools, or engaging in Islamic studies for Muslim students.
- Spiritual guidance activities for students of other religions.
- Independent learning, such as completing school assignments or reading books.
- Social activities, such as helping parents or cleaning the surrounding environment.
- Physical preparation, such as light exercise and managing diet before fasting.
These activities aim to keep students productive during the break while also strengthening religious and social values.
3. Eid Holiday Schedule 2025 for School Students
In addition to the early fasting holiday, the government has also set the schedule for the Eid al-Fitr holiday in 2025 for students. According to the Joint Ministerial Decree, the Eid holiday will last for 14 days, from Wednesday, March 26, 2025, to Tuesday, April 8, 2025.
Here are the details of the schedule:
- March 26-27, 2025: School holiday according to the Joint Ministerial Decree

- March 31 - April 1, 2025: National holiday for Eid al-Fitr
- April 2-8, 2025: Joint leave for Eid al-Fitr
Unlike the early fasting holiday, which still involves independent learning, the Eid holiday is entirely given for rest and celebration with family.
