Holidays & Holy Days

December is a month of Holidays and Holy Days. In the northern hemisphere nights are longer, the darkness deepens, and the weather is colder. Many cultural and religious traditions developed around the winter solstice and the end of the agricultural year, with hope for light and warmth and new life to emerge in the coming months. Come down to your school library in person, or visit us online, to find out more about the many different festivals, celebrations and observances that take place at this time of year.
