Eid-ul-Fitr falls on the first day of Shawwal, the 10th month of the Muslim calendar, and marks
the end of the month of Ramadan. On this day, Muslims who had been observing Ramadan break
the fast and celebrate its conclusion.
The day traditionally begins early with a prayer ceremony at the community mosque. Since this is a day to celebrate the renewal of one's commitment to Islam, people may wear new clothes as a symbol of fresh beginnings. Families typically visit one another and exchange good wishes, hugs and handshakes and homes are often decorated to reflect the festive atmosphere of this special day.
On this festive and meaningful occasion for many members of the Islamic community, we join you in wishing staff, students and parents, a happy celebration
