Does Qatar have holidays in December?

Sorry if the answer to this question is really obvious to people who've lived here for a while, but I've only been here since February and trying to get any information about dates has almost been impossible. I just want to know if I can expect any holidays around Christmas-time, even though it's not celebrated by Muslims. It's just because school starts at the same time schools in the US and England do. Thanks. :)
