Everything you need to know about spending the winter break at Kent.
If you are staying on campus or locally for the festive season there is loads of support and activities on offer. This page also outlines facility opening times, 24/7 support services, and how to connect with others on campus for the break.
Let us know if you'll be staying in your campus accommodation over the winter break in Canterbury by Wednesday 11 December. If you are staying at Pier Quays, Unite Students will be in touch with you.
Don’t forget if you’re living in part-catered accommodation and want to stay on campus over the winter break you’ll need to book vacation accommodation at least one week before you’re due to move out. Please note all meal plans come to an end for the vacation period from Saturday 14 December 2024 - Saturday 11 January 2025. Vacation accommodation is available on a self-catered basis only and you will have access to a kitchen to cook your own meals.
Each day during December until Christmas Eve, you can open a door on the Global Officers Advent Calendar. Behind each door, our Global Officers will share some of their favourite things, traditions and what they like to do at this time of year.
