As January merges into the next month, February, the theme of love is floating in the air and every second that passes is one second closer to Valentine’s Day. We are very excited for the upcoming weeks as it will be filled with fun!
On 28 February, we will be celebrating Ramadan. Ramadan is the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. The exact dates of Ramadan change every year. This is because Islam uses a calendar based on the cycles of the Moon.
Also, to celebrate St David’s Day, we will wear something yellow. On Valentine’s Day, we will be wearing pink and completing some love-themed activities.
At KRA, we love embarking on trips, especially a whole school beach one coming up in a few months. Valentine’s Day is one of our favourite holidays because it is a golden opportunity to show affection or celebrate love with cards, flowers, and sweets!
We hope you have a wonderful Valentine’s, and many good things throughout February! Let’s hope February ends winter with a good note, Happy Valentine’s Day!
Best regards, KRA Editorial team
