The Petersfield.co weekly briefing

Half term, the clocks and a pre-winter heating check

22 October 2026 · Published by Dean Keating · Previous edition

Half term: Monday 26 to Friday 30 October

Hampshire County Council's published pattern for community and controlled schools has autumn half term from Monday 26 to Friday 30 October 2026. Academies, voluntary aided and independent schools can differ, so check your own school's calendar first. See the 2026/27 term dates.

Petersfield Museum and Art Gallery is open Wednesday to Saturday, 10am to 5pm, with last entry at 4pm. General admission is £5 and under 18s go free, according to the museum's own pages. For library sessions, play areas and rainy-day ideas, check each venue before you go because sessions can change. Things to do with kids in Petersfield.

Clocks go back on Sunday 25 October

At 2am the clocks go back one hour, from British Summer Time to Greenwich Mean Time (gov.uk). East Hampshire District Council collects refuse, recycling and glass fortnightly and food waste weekly. Bin calendars are numbered by collection day, so check yours and have bins out by 6am. How to find your bin day.

Before you book a heating engineer

As the evenings get colder, it helps to know what to ask before you book. Set out the work you need, ask whether the engineer covers your address, check the qualifications relevant to the work and agree what the quote includes. Read the booking checklist.
