in NSW it states on "school days" which does not include holidays. It does however include "pupil free days" I don't know of anybody being done in school holidays..... i have read about it, but they inevitably get off.

It feels weird, but in NSW you've got nothing to worry about during school hols as on the signs it says school days:

The school up the road from me hasn't changed their sign post to cover up the 40k speed limit. I've been doing 40 just in case but if I do 60k can I get fined?

I'll call a mate from ACT police and ask the question for you.

I'm quite fortunate to have one school zone on the trip to work which displays flashing LED lights if the school zone is active.
On the other hand, the second school zone (Sunnyholt Rd, Blacktown), is 70km/h during 'normal' hours. Anyone who mistakenly does the normal speed limit through there is going to get done quite severely. : \
