Planning for your next getaway? Not sure what’s a good time to finally take a deserving break from school or work? Read on to find out about the long weekends ahead in 2017 which have been summarised for you. Thank me later.
10 Long Weekends with 6 Days of Leave

With just six days of leave to take, you can get a total of 10 long weekends in return for the year ahead. The year 2017 has been blessed with three mid-week breaks, awesomely spaced apart: Vesak Day on 10 May, National Day on 9 Aug, and Deepavali on October 18.
For your well-deserved holiday breaks, you can always take a two-day leave and make each of them become a five-day long weekend.

Otherwise, those Wednesdays alone can allow you to just take a short break and freshen up for the rest of the week.
