International Worker's Day: May 1 2023
International Worker's Day, sometimes called May Day or Labour Day, takes place annually on May 1. This day is a celebration of labourers and the working class and commemorates the historic and ongoing struggles of the labour movement. In the late 1800's, workers came together to fight for safer work environments and an eight-hour workday, demanding eight hours for work, eight hours for rest, and eight hours to do as they will. These workers struggled and fought, eventually taking to the streets in a general strike that would result in death and injury to those who participated.
2023 Family Literacy Day Contest
It's January and time to celebrate Family Literacy Day! This fun celebration raises awareness about the importance of reading and engaging in other literacy-related activities. For kids, taking time to read every day is crucial to a child's development, improving their literacy skills dramatically. For adults, reading allows us to learn something new, or escape into an exciting world of fiction. Family literacy allows the entire family to improve their reading and writing skills.
