   Écoles de retour?

   Pardon my Leaving Cert French but Is it not ‘Retour À L’école’ or ‘Le Retour Des Écoles’?

      “la rentrée scolaire”, or just “la rentrée” – though maybe that is more for the one in September. But that is what I would call it.

      Either way, the kids are saying it’s merde.

            kinda has to be September for that in my opinion,
            like Le Grand Départ has to be end of July/Aug

               You would say it for any big ‘rentrée’, like in January also, I would have thought (all of those newspapers seem to agree with me).

               more familiar with September in vernacular use personally but sure I say boxing day for the 26th, depends on your milieu :)
