Enter the height (in metres):
and convert whatever value to feet and inches. I've done this
part as you can see below, but how can I terminate the program
when user inputs a height less than 1/2 inch?

Dang...I got suckered into answering a homework problem for the last one. My apologies to the professor if they eavesdrop on the mailing list. However, given the demonstrated skill level of the programmer, if you suspect your student got the answer from my reply, a fairly simple tweak of the problem would separate the wheat from the chaff.

For this one,

1) you're using the int() function, so fractional inches coming from the user don't really matter anyways.

2) read up on the "%" (modulo) operator, or check out the divmod() function in Python.
