School holidays can be stressful periods for children from low-income families. Poor provision of appropriate childcare, limited access to enrichment activities, and food insecurity mean that children's health and well-being can suffer and their learning stagnate or decline. This article examines and documents the evidence that has emerged on this topic and aims to raise its profile and the impact on children's lives. It makes the case for further academic scrutiny of this unexamined and neglected subject.
学校假期对低收入家庭的孩子来说可能是压力很大的时期。适当的儿童保育服务不足、参加丰富活动的机会有限以及粮食不安全意味着儿童的健康和幸福可能会受到影响，他们的学习也会停滞或退步。本文审视并记录了关于这一主题已出现的证据，旨在提高其受关注程度以及对儿童生活的影响。本文主张对这一未被审视和忽视的主题进行进一步的学术研究。
