vacaciones escolares : Bridge day before Human Rights Day

Feriado seculare : On this day in 1960 the police killed 69 people at Sharpeville who were participating in a protest against the pass laws. Many were shot in the back. The carnage made world headlines. Four days later the government banned black political organizations, many leaders were arrested or went into exile. During the Apartheid era there were human rights abuses by all sides; Human Rights Day is but one step to ensure that the people of South Africa are aware of their human rights and to ensure that such abuses never again occur.

Tarjetas/Flores : Como dice la historia, en 1564, Francia fue una de las primeras naciones en hacer oficialmente el día de Año Nuevo el 1 de enero, en lugar de la última semana de marzo que se observó anteriormente. En 1582, el Papa siguió su ejemplo. Aquellos que continuaron celebrando el 1 de abril fueron burlados. Como el signo de la zodiacala el pez, los franceses colocaron peces muertos en la espalda unos de otros. Las tradiciones varían de un país a otro.

Católica o Protestante : El Primer Concilio de Nicaea (reunión de obispos en los primeros días del cristianismo) quiso encontrar un día para conmemorar la crucifixión y resurrección de Cristo. Esta conmemoración tuvo que estar vinculada a las tradiciones navideñas judías, ya que se creía que la última cena de Cristo era una comida judía de Pascua. Pero el calendario judío se basa en los ciclos lunares y solares, por lo que la celebración de Pascua tuvo que seguir el mismo calendario.

Feriado seculare : It was typical in South Africa to take a day off of work after Easter. This day, which is also known as Easter Monday, was renamed as Family Day in 1995.

Feriado seculare : In 1975 protests started in African schools after a directive from the then Bantu Education Department that Afrikaans had to be used on an equal basis with English as a language of instruction in secondary schools.

On 16 June 1976 more than 20 000 pupils from Soweto began a protest march. Paid holiday when falling on Saturday or Sunday Previously known as Soweto Day.
