Labour Day

Today is a public holiday in NSW - Labour Day. This holiday varies across the country.

Labour Day in Australia

In Australia, the Labour Day public holiday is fixed by the various states and territories' governments, and so varies considerably. It is the first Monday in October in the Australian Capital Territory, New South Wales and South Australia. In both Victoria and Tasmania, it is the second Monday in March (though the latter calls it Eight Hours Day). In Western Australia, Labour Day is the first Monday in March. In both Queensland and the Northern Territory, it is the first Monday in May.

I've let Moira celebrate her labour day and I have made her many cups of tea.
