Školska godina u Hrvatskoj

Školski praznici

Početak i kraj nastave, odmori i blagdani koji zatvaraju školu, prema godišnjoj Odluci Ministarstva. Vrijedi za osnovne i srednje škole u cijeloj Hrvatskoj. Dva kalendara s istim datumima: jedan na hrvatskom, jedan na engleskom s objašnjenjima za doseljenike.

The Croatian school year

Croatian School Holidays

Term dates, breaks and the public holidays that close the schools, from the annual decision (Odluka) of the Ministry. Covers primary and secondary schools across Croatia. Two calendars with the same dates: one in Croatian, one in English with notes for newcomers.

Odluka piše da odmor počinje dan nakon zadnjeg sata i završava na datum koji je često vikend ili blagdan, pa se datumi lako krivo pročitaju. Ovdje svaki odmor ide od prvog slobodnog dana do zadnjeg, a u opisu piše zadnji dan škole i dan povratka. Ljetni odmor iduće godine označen je kao okvirno dok Ministarstvo ne objavi novu Odluku, obično krajem svibnja ili u lipnju.

The Odluka says that a break starts the day after the last lesson and ends on a date that is often a weekend or a holiday. That makes the published dates easy to misread. Here every break runs from the first day off to the last, and each entry names the last school day and the day the children go back. The summer break of the following year stays provisional until the Ministry publishes the new decision, usually in late May or June.

Kako dodati u svoj kalendar

Ovo je pretplata, ne uvoz. Kalendar ostaje povezan s izvorom, pa ispravci i nove godine stižu sami. Gumb „Dodaj u svoj kalendar” nudi prečace za najčešće aplikacije, a ovdje piše što se iza njih događa i kako isto napraviti ručno.

Google Kalendar

Klikni Google Kalendar u izborniku. Otvori se calendar.google.com i pita „Dodati kalendar?”. Potvrdi i kalendar se pojavi među ostalim kalendarima.

Na mobitelu to napravi u pregledniku, ne u aplikaciji. Aplikacija Google Kalendar ne zna dodati kalendar iz linka, ali kad ga jednom dodaš na webu, pojavi se i u aplikaciji. Ako ga ne vidiš, u aplikaciji otvori postavke, nađi svoj račun i uključi ga.

Ručno: na webu lijevo uz „Drugi kalendari” klikni +, zatim „Pretplati se na kalendar” i upiši adresu kalendara:

99acf140bfd2f5a0f6d41ba75f888cc95dc47bfdd221eb84f594b8d7f840074e@group.calendar.google.com
Apple Kalendar (iPhone, iPad, Mac)

Klikni Apple Kalendar. Otvori se upit za pretplatu, potvrdi. Na iPhoneu i Macu to je isti korak.

Ručno na iPhoneu: Postavke › Aplikacije › Kalendar › Računi › Dodaj račun › Ostalo › Dodaj pretplaćeni kalendar, pa zalijepi adresu:

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/99acf140bfd2f5a0f6d41ba75f888cc95dc47bfdd221eb84f594b8d7f840074e%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

Na Macu: Kalendar › Datoteka › Nova pretplata na kalendar. Osvježavanje postavi na „svaki dan”.

Samsung Kalendar (Galaxy telefoni)

Samsung Kalendar se ne zna pretplatiti na adresu kalendara. Prikazuje samo kalendare s računa koji su na telefonu. Zato ovaj kalendar prvo dodaj u svoj Google račun, a onda ga uključi u Samsung Kalendaru.

1. Na telefonu otvori ovu stranicu u pregledniku i klikni Google Kalendar. Prijavi se s istim Google računom koji telefon koristi, pa potvrdi „Dodati kalendar?”.

2. Otvori aplikaciju Google Kalendar. Izbornik (tri crte gore lijevo) › Postavke › ime novog kalendara, pod „Prikaži više” ako ga ne vidiš. Uključi Sinkronizaciju.

3. Otvori Samsung Kalendar. Izbornik (tri crte gore lijevo) › Upravljanje kalendarima › svoj Google račun, pa uključi kalendar.

Ako kalendar ostane prazan, otvori Postavke › Računi i sigurnosno kopiranje › Upravljanje računima › svoj Google račun › Sinkronizacija računa, i uključi Kalendar.

Nemoj koristiti „Uvoz događaja” u Samsung Kalendaru. To jednom prepiše datume i oni se poslije više ne osvježavaju.

Bez Google računa Samsung Kalendar ovo ne može. Zasebna aplikacija, na primjer ICSx⁵, drži pretplatu i prikazuje je u Samsung Kalendaru.

Outlook

Outlook.com i Microsoft 365 na webu: klikni Outlook.com u izborniku. Ručno: Dodaj kalendar › Pretplata s weba, pa zalijepi adresu iznad.

Klasični Outlook za Windows: Datoteka › Postavke računa › Internetski kalendari › Novo.

Sve ostalo (Thunderbird, Fastmail, Proton, Nextcloud...)

Svaka aplikacija koja zna „pretplata na kalendar s adrese” ili „mrežni kalendar” prihvaća istu .ics adresu. Kopiraj je gumbom Kopiraj adresu i zalijepi.

Za pogledati bez pretplate: otvori u Google Kalendaru.

How to add it to your calendar

This is a subscription, not an import. Your calendar stays linked to the source, so corrections and new years arrive on their own. The "Add to your calendar" button offers shortcuts for the common apps. This section explains what happens behind them and how to do the same by hand.

Google Calendar

Click Google Calendar in the menu. calendar.google.com opens and asks "Add calendar?". Confirm, and the calendar appears next to your other calendars.

On a phone, do this in the browser, not in the app. The Google Calendar app cannot add a calendar from a link. Once you add it on the web, it shows up in the app too. If you cannot see it, open the settings of the app, find your account and switch the calendar on.

By hand: on the web, next to "Other calendars" click +, then "Subscribe to calendar" and enter the calendar address:

ad121182502d24eef2c249ca54e0638b11eb9400573848f17d2c1108d028806f@group.calendar.google.com
Apple Calendar (iPhone, iPad, Mac)

Click Apple Calendar. A subscription prompt opens. Confirm it. The step is the same on iPhone and Mac.

By hand on iPhone: Settings › Apps › Calendar › Accounts › Add Account › Other › Add Subscribed Calendar, then paste the address:

https://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/ad121182502d24eef2c249ca54e0638b11eb9400573848f17d2c1108d028806f%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics

On a Mac: Calendar › File › New Calendar Subscription. Set auto-refresh to "every day".

Samsung Calendar (Galaxy phones)

Samsung Calendar cannot subscribe to a calendar address. It shows only the calendars of the accounts on your phone. So put this calendar in your Google account first, then switch it on in Samsung Calendar.

1. On the phone, open this page in the browser and click Google Calendar. Sign in with the same Google account the phone uses, then confirm "Add calendar?".

2. Open the Google Calendar app. Menu (the three lines, top left) › Settings › the name of the new calendar, under "Show more" if you do not see it. Turn Sync on.

3. Open Samsung Calendar. Menu (the three lines, top left) › Manage calendars › your Google account, then switch the calendar on.

If the calendar stays empty, open Settings › Accounts and backup › Manage accounts › your Google account › Sync account, and switch Calendar on.

Do not use "Import events" in Samsung Calendar. That copies the dates once, and they never update again.

Without a Google account, Samsung Calendar cannot do this at all. A separate app such as ICSx⁵ holds the subscription and shows it in Samsung Calendar.

Outlook

Outlook.com and Microsoft 365 on the web: click Outlook.com in the menu. By hand: Add calendar › Subscribe from web, then paste the address above.

Classic Outlook for Windows: File › Account Settings › Internet Calendars › New.

Everything else (Thunderbird, Fastmail, Proton, Nextcloud...)

Any app that offers "subscribe to a calendar by URL" or "network calendar" takes the same .ics address. Copy it with the Copy address button and paste it.

To look without a subscription: open in Google Calendar.
