He was at the Yule Ball, exploding the bushes where the couples were, 
and talking to Karkaroff. It's when he said "flee if you want, I stay 
in Hogwart".

And he was also there in POA, he received the same hat than Neville's 
gran in gift. But he gave it to DD.

For the other, I must look:

For the first, he was there. Harry try the invisibility cloak after 
Christmas dinner, make the book shriek, and Filch goes warn Snape. 
Harry found the mirror while trying to avoid them.

For COS, we don't see him.

And in OOTP, even Harry is not in Hogwart, so we can't know.

But if we look, each Christmas, there is something who worth to stay 
on guard even during the holidays:

The Stone and Quirrel to watch, the monster of the Chambers of 
Secrets (already two petrified), Sirius and Lupin (who needs his 
potion), the return of the Mark on his arm and Harry's participation 
to the Tournament.

So in conclusion, we don't know if he stay because he can't go 
elsewhere, or if he stay because he needed to keep an eye on 
something.
