Eid

Eid Mubarak!

Dear Parent / Carer,

As I am sure many of you are aware, many families in our community will soon be celebrating the Muslim festival of Eid.  This festival comes after a very warm month of Ramadan.  We anticipate that the celebration will fall either on Sunday the 25^th June or Monday 26^th June.  We understand that if you are celebrating Eid on the Monday you may wish your child to celebrate with you. If so then we will authorise one day of absence for religious observance.  However, school will be open and we will be ready to provide learning for all throughout the week as normal.

We recognise that Eid is a very important religious festival for so many people in our locality and across the world.   As a school we would like to be a part of this celebration.  On Tuesday 27^th June we will have a celebration day in school.  We are inviting all children to come to school in their finest celebration clothes.  These might be special clothes they have received as gifts for Eid or anything else they like to wear for special occasions.  Later in the afternoon classes will spend some time eating some celebratory food.  If you would like to send some food into school for your child to share with their class you are welcome to do so.  Please could you ensure none of the food contains nuts as we know some of the children at Cabot are allergic to nuts.  Could you please send the food in with your child to the class in the morning of the 27^th June. 

Best wishes and Eid Mubarak,

Tom Burton
