Speech for the presentation Firstly, let’s talk about three UK Public Holidays( England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales) – St. Andrew’s Day, Boxing Day and St. Patrick’s Day. St. Andrew’s Day – Saint Andrew’s Day is the official national day of Scotland, and it is always celebrated on 30 November. From this year on, Scottish people have been celebrating the day with several festivals and other special events. The flag of Scotland will be seen on every flag pole in the country. Saint Andrew, whom the holiday is named after, is the patron saint of Scotland. Saint Andrew is the Andrew mentioned in the Gospels of the Christian Bible. As the brother of Simon Peter, St. Andrew became a central figure in the Biblical belief. On this day, Scots all over the world celebrate their national day. Boxing Day - In Britain, Boxing Day is usually celebrated on the following day after Christmas Day, which is 26 December. However, strictly speaking, Boxing Day is the first weekday after Christmas. Like Christmas Day, Boxing Day is a public holiday. This means it is typically a non working day in the whole of Britain. Traditionally, 26 December was the day to open the Christmas Box to share the contents with the poor. The Christmas box was a wooden or clay container where people placed gifts. Schools across the country gather together gifts to be put in Christmas Boxes that are sent to poorer countries. Boxing Day is also known as St. Stephen's Day (when Good King Wenceslas looked out). St. Patrick’s Day - One of the greatest Irish festivals, St. Patrick's Day or Paddy's Day commemorates the death of St. Patrick, the patron saint of Ireland. A festive day for the Irish people, St. Patrick's Day is a festive public holiday the Republic of Ireland and also celebrated with much enthusiasm in places such as Canada, Great Britain, Australia, the United States and New Zealand. Sumptuous feasts, green clothes, frothy delights, joyous merrymaking with friends and family - all are parts of this grand occasion. In the middle part of my presentation I am going to tell about three funny UK holidays. Pancake Race - PARLIAMENTARY PANCAKE RACE - Each year on Pancake Day (earlier if Shrove Tuesday falls during the recess of Parliament) teams of MPs, Lords and political journalists take part in the Parliamentary Pancake Race. They race around Victoria Tower Gardens, Millbank, London SW1P. This is outside the Houses of Parliament.The event starts at about 10am. It raises money for the brain injury charity Rehab UK. Cheese-Rolling – This unique game was developed by Jeremy, inspired by and loosely based on the concept of the Cooper's Hill Cheese Rolling and Wake. Cheese Rolling has become an annual and every May Day hundreds of villagers and visitors make their way to the main street to watch the teams battling for the honour of being called the 'Cheese Rolling Champions'. Red Nose Day – “Do something! Funny for money!” Red Nose Day is a day like no other when the whole country gets together to do something funny for money and change countless lives in the process. It all culminates in a night of cracking TV on the BBC with some of the biggest names in comedy and entertainment. And the best bit? All the fun and mayhem helps to raise cash and transform lives across the UK and Africa. This event is held two times a year. Red Nose Day 2011 has been an incredible success. To end with, I would like to tell about official UK Holiday of this year - The Royal Wedding. The Royal Wedding of Prince William and Kate Middleton will take place on Friday – 29 April 2011in Westminster Abbey. The event is a large one, with many millions of pounds budget. The day of the Wedding will become a banking holiday, as well as the following Monday after the wedding. In addition to this, the fact that the week prior to the event is Easter make a very log weekend to some people who decide to take three days off between this holidays. The event is expected to bring out thousands of observers. Westminster Abbey is the venue, and this beautiful and aged hall will surely make for a beautiful ceremony.
