- January 25 (Monday) – Take one day off before Australia Day (Tuesday, January 26) for a 4-day weekend from January 23 to 26.
- March 25 (Thursday) – Take Thursday off before Good Friday for a 5-day break from March 25 to 29 (using just 1 vacation day, since Good Friday and Easter Monday are holidays).
- April 23 (Friday) – Take one day off before ANZAC Day Bridge Holiday (Monday, April 26) for a 4-day weekend from April 23 to 26.
- April 30 (Friday) – Take one day off before May Day (Monday, May 3) for a 4-day weekend from April 30 to May 3.
