Labour Day
Labour Day is a public holiday. Back in the 1800's people used to work a lot longer than eight hours a day. A man named Samuel Parnell refused to work more than eight hours a day. He encouraged other people to work only eight hours a day. Labour Day is in October, but it does not have a solid date, but it is on the fourth Monday. People get to have a day to do what ever they want and no work or school, unless you work at a hospital.
